theguardian.comWorth noting that this person decided they were trans after they were already caught and charged with serious offences. I think there's a decent chance that this isn't a transition so much as a way to cause hassle.
Prisoners get extremely bored and do all sorts of strange things to amuse themselves / rebel against their sentence.

"21 child sexual abuse offences" and only "jailed for 10 years".
So less than six months for each offence and yet a possible life time of damage to each child.
A surprisingly harsh sentence by normal modern standards in our justice system.
The offcenes I believe were all on the lines of organising a meet/exposing himself online etc which yes very bad but I don't think he got around to the rape.
Most acts of violence are given less than a few years.
Hopefully he remains incompetent
Misgendering is a hate crime. This person is a woman
It's a sexual predator of children. Who gives a flying fuck about its preferred gender
No it isn't.
He was sent to a male prison and seems to have been Richard at the time. And judging by the mugshot was not living as a woman. I stand by my point.

Don’t misgender her.
She is now a trans woman

The article is really much too vague to form any view on the sentence. It describes 3 serious incidents, but for all we know most of the charges are minor.
It's also noteworthy that the none of the incidents described seems to have involved real children. Presumably that's a factor in sentencing.
