No. Transgender inmates have to petition the warden for a transfer to a women's prison and if the warden denies the request then they'll have to appeal to CDCR's Secretary - the head of the department. And if the secretary says no, then they can start a nice long appeals process through the courts.Calif. all one has to do is say they're trans & get shipped off to the womens prisons....TOTAL insanity
"Trans" inmates can't even get a diagnosis of gender dysphoria and HRT without a year of GD in their medical record.
As I said, it may be the law, but prison administrators know how to make policy they disagree with work in their favor anyway.
I can't speak for elsewhere, but in California they're the same. Seriously mentally ill inmates get sent to state hospitals. JY is not seriously mentally ill.Much appreciated. Maybe it's off topic but now my interest is piqued; how are the living conditions as an inmate (patient?) having been committed to a mental health facility compared to a regular prison?
