Female inmates at the women’s prison in Shakopee, Minnesota have come forward to report disturbing behavior from the trans-identified males housed at their facility.
“There is talk of some women in the prison agreeing to have sex with these men to get pregnant and sue the DOC and the state,” Warmbo says. “This has caused a climate of terror inside the prison, as they are forced to shower in an open area without locked doors and they can hear them talk about sexual things they want to do to the women.”
As Reduxx reported last month, a total of five male convicts have been transferred to a Minnesota’s women-only prison following the adoption of a gender identity policy by the Department of Corrections in January of 2023. Two of the men who are now being held at MCF-Shakopee are sexual predators serving sentences related to the abuse of children.
The prison policy was altered following a June 2022 lawsuit against the Minnesota Department of Corrections which ultimately resulted in the implementation of measures permitting male convicts to be housed in the female estate.
The discrimination claim was filed by the trans activist non-profit organization Gender Justice on behalf of Craig ‘Christina’ Lusk, who was serving a five-year sentence for the possession of methamphetamine at the Moose Lake correctional facility for men. In order to aid their legal fight to have violent men placed into the women’s prison, Gender Justice was granted nearly $500,000 in taxpayer funds from the administration of Governor Tim Walz.
But Lusk’s ex-wife came forward last year to tell The Daily Mail that she believed he was a “scammer” and a “big fat liar.”
“He would tell his family that if he was a woman, and had boobs, then they had to put him in a female prison,” said Lusk’s ex-wife, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
“He said that he was going to make sure he made money out of the whole ordeal, he said ‘I’m going to become a woman and complain to make sure they give me money and move me,’” she added. “When we were married he wasn’t doing anything like that, or even after we were divorced. I think he’s a big fat liar.”
