A trans woman who was convicted of rape before she transitioned has been moved into a men's prison after initially being remanded to an all-women's jail in Scotland
Isla Bryson - , from Clydebank, Scotland - carried out her crimes before she transitioned to be a woman, when she was Adam Graham.
It came after Labour's shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper said unequivocally that Bryson should not be put with female inmates. The High Court in Glasgow heard how Bryson's marriage broke down and she ended up staying with her first victim at her mother's house in Clydebank.She raped her in a half hour ordeal, with the victim, 30, describing how she was "so scared" and "sick to the stomach".The second victim, 34, told the court how Bryson raped her after she told her to stop.
