A trans killer has admitted culpable and reckless conduct after a female member of staff was injured at the women’s wing of a Scottish prison.
Paris Green, who is serving life for murder, was initially charged with assaulting the victim by forcibly pushing a door in August 2023.
This month, the 33-year-old pled guilty to an amended charge of culpable and reckless conduct at Edinburgh Sheriff Court and was admonished.
Green was born Peter Laing but now identifies as female and is incarcerated in the women’s wing of HMP Edinburgh.
But campaign group For Women Scotland has criticised the Scottish Prison Service’s policy.
Spokeswoman Susan Smith said: “This illustrates the abject idiocy of the notion that violent male prisoners convicted of murdering or assaulting other men will be restrained and gentle towards women.
“Paris Green is clearly a danger to all women in that unit and should have been removed at once.”
