Yet again, prison authorities are housing a man who pretends to be a woman in a women’s prison.
This time, the “trans woman” is a pedophile who is serving an 87-year prison sentence for molesting his own children, Reduxx has disclosed.
The Cinderfella in question is one James Blessent, who goes by ”Michelle.” Having convinced leftist officials that he’s really a woman, he’s serving his sentence at the Logan Correctional Facility in Lincoln, Illinois.
Thus have the authorities now exposed every woman in Blessent’s proximity to possible rape.
Blessent isn’t the first “trans woman” to get what he wants and land at Logan, and he won’t be the last. Another faker is there now, and a third was there before being released when his sentence ended.
Nationwide, men who falsely claim to be women are interned with them.
Child Molester
Blessent’s journey to the women’s prison, which Wikipedia identified as a facility for “female and transgender offenders,” began when he was indicted on five counts of sexual assault of a victim under 13 years old, Reduxx reported last year in April.
From the get go, authorities went along with the then-33-year-old Blessent’s bogus identity, the website continued:
Bloomington Police identified Blessent using his “female” name in a press release following his indictment and most major media reported him as being a “woman,” leading to ample confusion amongst Bloomington residents who saw the police department’s public notice posted to Facebook.
Among the replies to the Facebook notice are some users chastising others for “transphobic comments,” and condemning the Bloomington Police Department for not having locked the comment section in order to prevent such remarks from being made.
Brandt Parsley, a public information officer at the Bloomington Police Department, did provide a further statement to local radio station Cities 92.9, noting that Blessent’s arrest marked “uncharted territory for the police department.” Parsley did confirm that Blessent had legally changed his name to Michelle.
It was also uncharted territory for Blessent, who changed his name legally in July 2022, because he couldn’t be sure if cops would buy the ruse.
Blessent is also a deadbeat dad who tried to skate on his child-support obligation, and he was involved in a domestic battery case that was dropped, Reduxx reported, because the victim refused to prosecute.
Reduxx posted “A photo from Blessent’s Facebook dated February of 2017 showing him with a toddler.” The website continued:
Disturbingly, it appears Blessent had access to very young children at that time, though it is unconfirmed if the children in the photos are his own.
Blessent was indicted after multiple reports were made about the alleged abuse and an extensive investigation was carried out by [the] Bloomington Police Department. Blessent has been charged with five counts of sexual assault, which is defined in the state of Illinois as involving penetration by force or in a situation where a victim cannot give consent.
In November, the website reported:
Three charges were applied, including one additional count of Predatory Criminal Sexual Assault of a Victim Under 13, one count of Grooming, and one count of Exploitation of a Child. In a public notice posted to their Facebook, the Bloomington Police Department confirmed that the new charges were related to the original victim.
On June 26, Blessent pleaded guilty to two counts of predatory sexual assault. He was sentenced to 42 years per count, and landed another three years for grooming. He is eligible for parole in 2095, which means he won’t likely leave prison.
He’ll have a long, long time to molest the female inmates at Logan Correctional Center.
Recently released police body camera footage shows him in a “short floral dress” when cops arrested him. And “officers refer to him using feminine pronouns,” Reduxx continued:
According to Police Insider, Blessent told police he could not have sexually assaulted the children because estrogen made it difficult for him to maintain an erection.
Blessent will serve his sentence at Logan “despite legally being male, and having an accurate sex marker,” Reduxx reported.
Andre Patterson/Janiah Monroe
He joins another faker, Andre Patterson, who calls himself Janiah Monroe. Authorities surrendered to his pretense after he received “the assistance of various trans activists and law firms, while claiming he had been struggling with PTSD from his initial placement in a men’s prison.”
Monroe is likely more dangerous than Blessent, as he has been convicted of second-degree murder. One woman at the facility says he raped her, and female inmates reported that he sexually harassed them.
When the Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC) tried to return him to a men’s prison, leftist Governor J.B. Pritzker’s office vetoed the decision. Noted Reduxx:
Pritzker is known for being an ardent supporter of trans activism, and is the brother of Jennifer Pritzker, a trans-identified male billionaire who frequently funds trans causes.
A third tranny at Logan was the since-released convicted burglar “Strawberry Hampton.”
After he sued the IDOC for discrimination, “a federal judge … ordered IDOC staff to undergo extensive training on transgender issues,” Reduxx reported.
Other Prisoners, Rape Alleged
As The New American reported in May, citing Reduxx, “trans women” greatly endanger the real women with whom they are imprisoned.
In January, a complaint alleges, Tremaine Carroll, yet another fake woman, raped a woman at the Central California Women’s Facility.
Authorities knew Carroll was a deranged and dangerous career criminal but moved him anyway when he “identified” as a woman. He also became a trans cult hero. The California Coalition for Women Prisoners portrayed him as a hero for being “an incarcerated transgender woman instrumental in several prison lawsuits.”
After the rape charge, authorities returned him to a men’s facility — too late for the woman authorities allege he raped.
In March, Reduxx reported a similar case in Washington State. “Trans woman” Christopher Williams molested his cellmate.
