In the world of woke politics and justice, misgendering is a worse crime than child molestation and murder. It shouldn’t be surprising that the most recent example of this can be found in California.
It was reported recently on Fox News that Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon suspended lead prosecutor Shea Sanna for five days without pay.
So, what sort of malfeasance did this prosecutor engage in that led to her suspension?
“I was suspended for speaking out against the Gascón Administration,” Saana wrote. “Misgendering Tubbs while informing them that they were being played is just their excuse for the suspension.”
James Tubbs is a 26-year-old convicted child molester who goes by the name of Hannah. His currently accused of beating a man to death with a rock.
Saana said Tubbs has attempted to his transgender identity to “game” the system. This did not set well with Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon who suspended the attorney, according to Fox News.
Gascon has become known for his “soft on crime” approach that became so bad that even residents in liberal Los Angeles tried to recall him. The effort failed and Gascon doesn’t seem to have learned from the experience.
Tubbs began identifying as a transgender woman in 2014 when he was arrested for assaulting a 10-year-old girl in a restaurant bathroom. Transcripts of phone calls to family members show he was using his transgender identity to create sympathy for him in the court.
“I’ve also heard that my attacker goes by she/them pronouns now,” Tubbs’ now-adult victim told Fox News. “I see it also unfair to try him as a woman as well, seeing how he clearly didn’t act like one on January 1st of 2014.”
Sanna raised concerns about the abuse of the system.
“Part of it, the reason why I [was] suspended, is because I called out Tubbs to the administration and said I have recordings of him making up the name, gaming the system, joking about it and the date that it was made up,” Sanna told Fox News.
“And I had reports where he’s referring to himself as a “grown ass man.” It wasn’t like I was going around being transphobic or malicious — I brought it to their attention that they have a convicted child rapist trying to get himself into a juvenile facility as a woman, and he rapes little girls. … Does anybody see a problem with that?”
Apparently not Gascon’s office.
How is this justice? A child sex offender played the system to get the best outcome for himself, and when the ruse is discovered, it’s not the offender who is punished but the person who exposed the lie.
Gascon’s office appears not to worry so much about enforcing the law because it exposes a weakness in the transgender argument, which is not politically correct. So, they would rather ignore the truth and endanger other children who were in juvenile detention with Tubbs.
If prosecutors won’t enforce the law and prosecute criminals, then they need to be removed from office. It’s too bad the effort in California failed because you can be sure that innocent victims will pay the price.
