TRANSSEXUAL PAEDOPHILE SENTENCED TO JAIL, THREATENS SUICIDE OVER PRISON PLACEMENT
A known transsexual paedophile, Brian O'Neill, has publicly threatened to take his own life after being incarcerated in one of Scotland's toughest men's prisons.
The 43-year-old, who insists on being called Briony, was sentenced to three months for the molestation of a five-year-old girl and a nine-year-old boy.
Despite his requests to be placed in a women’s prison, he was sent to Edinburgh's Saughton Prison.
During court proceedings, O'Neill, dressed in a long black skirt, crop top, and leather mules, stated, "I'd rather kill myself than end up in a men's jail." His past convictions include abusing his victims in 2001 and 2002.
The court sentenced him and also mandated that he be registered on the Sex Offenders' Register.
The article describes him as a transgender man who is awaiting sex reassignment surgery, and it highlights the concerns and warnings from former prisoners about his placement.
