This story will upset all of the trans men and women out there who've been accused of being "groomers." There's no reason to think that a transgender person would be any more likely to be a pedophile than anyone else — except when they are.
This story comes out of Australia and involves a TikTok "star" who has pleaded guilty to child sexual assault charges.

The Daily Mail reports:
A TikTok star amassed thousands of followers claiming to be a 'proud trans woman' - but she was really a paedophile using her new identity as a 'mask', her victims have told a court.
Rachel Queen Burton, 44, repeatedly abused two children before stalking their family and driving them to homelessness, the District Court in Adelaide heard.
Burton then 'donned a mask', her victims say, and transitioned to life as a woman.
She pleaded guilty to aggravated counts of producing and possessing child exploitation material, gross indecency and indecent assault.
…
'You are a gross, phony, self-indulgent thing who has cheated my children out of so much, and took it away from them without care,' the mother read out.
'In your online rants, you showed no remorse for your bad behaviour, all while knowing what you had done… getting an audience for your false life was far more important.
You can wear any mask you like, but the truth is out and everybody knows who you really are, finally.'
If evil people are given a moral cloak that cannot be questioned, they are certain to wear it.

This is not to say that all transgender people are bad – that would be false – but rather that they should be no more above questioning than anyone else. https://t.co/0K243Sj8Yj
They basically canceled JK Rowling for suggesting that men shouldn’t be allowed in women’s shelters. Insane, right?

It’s always the things you’re not allowed to question that should be questioned most.

They also have a higher propensity for violence and for abusing children.
We can’t ignore those realities if we want to do our best to keep children safe.

A pedophile. To man’s jail. He’ll have a good experience there.

They'll probably send "her" to a women's prison if there's any time served at all.
He transitioned so he can now rape women in prison.

Oh wow, that thing I’m told never happens seems to have happened again

They change their "sex" & name to avoid these charges showing on future background checks, pretty obvious to me...

We just wrote Monday about "Tiara's Law," which would allow felons to change their names from prison to match their gender identity.
"When he was a man"? No, he's still a man, just wearing woman-face.

Prison will show him the laws of nature.

Are all trans people child predators? Of course not. But some of them are.
"Her TikTok bio described her as 'a proud Trans Woman living my best life with no regrets.'"
