Indiana AG Sues To Stop Tax-Payer Funded Sex Change For Child Murderer
5 weeks ago
The Indiana Attorney General is appealing after a federal judge ruled that an inmate, who was convicted of strangling an 11-month-old baby to death, can receive a sex change on the taxpayer’s dime.
AG Todd Rokita says that convicted baby killers do not have a constitutional right to gender transition surgeries.
The judge made the ruling after the ACLU filed a lawsuit against the Indiana DOC last year, on behalf of Jonathan Richardson – AKA Autumn - who was convicted of killing his stepdaughter in 2001.
The ACLU argued that the law prohibiting the DOC from using taxpayer dollars on sex changes is "cruel and unusual punishment."
