Minnesota Governor Tim Walz isn’t responsible just for putting tampons in the boys’ restrooms in public schools.
The Democratic vice-presidential nominee is also responsible for subsidizing a “transgender” lobby group that filed a “discrimination” lawsuit to put men into women’s prisons.
After the state corrections department adopted a “gender identity” regulation in January 2023, Reduxx reported, the agency moved five “trans women” into a women’s facility. Two are child molesters. One is a murderer.
Sexual Predators
The men who pretend to be women now enjoy life at MCF-Shakopee, Reduxx reported. The Minnesota Correctional Facility at Shakopee is the state’s only facility that houses women.
Elijah Thomas Berryman, 26, is serving a 25-year sentence for first-degree criminal sexual misconduct.
“Another, Sean Windingland, 35, sexually assaulted two 6-year-old relatives and posted videos of the abuse and grooming on pornography and pro-pedophile websites,” Reduxx explained:
Windingland admitted to engaging in sexual contact with the young girls when questioned by investigators, but claimed that the children had consented. He pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct in 2019. Windingland is now serving his 36-year prison sentence among women at MCF-Shakopee.
The murderer is Bradley Richard Sirvio, who landed a life sentence for beating a man to death with a hammer and setting the victim’s house ablaze in November 1995. He has other convictions for “multiple charges of assault, burglary, and theft,” Reduxx continued. “He was quietly transferred to MCF-Shakopee in November 2023, a full five months ahead of the date that a newly-drafted gender identity policy was set to take effect.”
The other two fakers are Nathan Charles Johnson and Craig Lusk, who goes by the name Christina Suzanne.
Craig Lusk
Lusk was behind the lawsuit, filed in July 2022, that ended with the state’s deciding to house men in the women’s facility. But he had help from the nonprofit outfit Gender Justice.
That’s where Tampon Tim Walz comes in. His administration pumped $448,904 into Gender Justice one year after it sued the corrections department (DOC) for “sex discrimination” on Lusk’s behalf. That figure, Reduxx reported, came from OpenTheBooks.com.
The group’s lawsuit, which used feminine pronouns for Lusk, was filled with the usual “trans” nonsense, Reduxx reported, and included such science denial as “gender identity refers to a person’s innate sense and deeply held understanding of their own gender. Everyone has a gender identity.”
“Lusk began taking female hormones in 2009 and received chest implants in 2017,” the website reported:
Gender Justice further demanded that Lusk be given “women’s undergarments,” and claimed that DOC “punished Ms. Lusk for having breasts and for wearing women’s clothing.” Additionally it was stated that Lusk was “repeatedly misgendered and misnamed.”
As previously reported by Reduxx, a Facebook account belonging to Lusk showed that he was obsessively posting about seeking female sexual partners, and that he wanted “a bride from Japan.”
Of course, the state settled. Minnesota taxpayers paid Lusk $495,00, $250,000 of which covered legal fees. The corrections department then made it easier for men to transfer into women’s prison.
Minnesota’s legal profession is just fine with the result.
“The legal team responsible for arguing Lusk’s case was honored with the title ‘Attorneys of the Year’ by law publication Minnesota Lawyer,” Reduxx reported:
The new transgender inmate policy, which was revised in April last year and came into effect at the beginning of April 2024, established an Agency Gender Identity Committee in order to identify and make placement recommendations for “incarcerated people who are transgender” or “gender diverse”. The document cites as an authority the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), a lobbying group that Reduxx has repeatedly connected with sex offenders and sexologists sympathetic to pedophiles.
Female Employee Quits
Not everyone is happy with Tampon Tim’s corrections department.
Prison GED instructor Alicia Beckmann quit her job — with good reason. The corrections department’s policy has created an “unsafe environment.”
Before the change, she told Alpha News, the prison had “a very gender responsive facility. We are taught that women are biologically different from men. We have curriculum specific for women, so the environment has shifted drastically.”
But more importantly, “a lot of the incarcerated women do not feel comfortable in their living unit, they don’t feel comfortable walking about the property, they were uncomfortable in my classroom,” she said.
And of course, putting men in women’s prisons is risking the lives of women, who are angry, confused, and frustrated. “It just has a vibe that doesn’t sit right with a lot of us who work at Shakopee because we are a women’s correctional facility,” she told the website.
Formerly, the prison had “what would be considered low-level offenders who are there on DWI charges, theft charges, drug possession.” Said Beckmann:
Then, you bring in biological males who are violent, who would be housed at a custody level four facility. I just believe we’re re-victimizing some of these women, re-traumatizing them. They are incarcerated, however, they all have a past and a lot of their past includes physical, sexual, and emotional abuse. I think allowing men to live amongst these women is traumatizing and it’s also unsafe for staff.
Other Prisons
Walz and his prison underlings certainly know their policy is putting women prisoners at risk of rape and murder.
In California, an inmate who discovered he was a woman in 2021 was transferred to a women’s facility. He was sent back to the men’s prison after being charged with two counts of rape.
A report from the Women’s Liberation Front says that 33 percent of the “trans women” who want to be incarcerated with real women are sex offenders.
