A trans woman named Natalie Wolf was convicted of molesting a 13-year-old girl by a UK court yesterday. Wolf was a man named Ryan Haley at the time of the attack and was addressed as a woman throughout the trial. However, when it was her turn to speak, the victim refused to address Haley as a woman, instead using the name of the man who had attacked her.
The victim, who is now an adult, feared she would be raped by Wolf, during the attack in Sunderland, England, and told the court her “shame and self-doubt” led to her not reporting the abuse, according to the report…
“I know you as Ryan Haley, a man who sexually abused me. There are few things more isolating than living in a body you don’t feel safe in. I’ve carried shame, self-doubt and a sense of disconnection from myself,” the victim told Wolf…
“Ryan, you destroyed me as a child, a teenager and an adult. Today you are finally going to face justice. Today, Ryan Haley, you are going to get what you deserve,” the statement concluded.
Wolf was convicted of sexual activity with a child and sentenced to three and a half years in a male prison.
Wolf/Haley represented himself accused the victim of lying and the jury of being hypnotized. The judge made a point of saying Haley had shown no remorse and seemed to be under the delusion that he was the victim in this case.
Judge Gavin Doig said the molester had shown “no remorse whatsoever”.
“It is clear you believed you are the victim of a conspiracy involving the courts, prison service, the barristers in the case, your solicitor, the police, your family and a number of other people,” he said.
“You make allegations in your notes I have read, most of which I will not repeat, but include someone hypnotising the jury or that the jury were planted by people so you would be convicted.
“You suggest the victim may have hypnotised the police officer during her video interview. I want you to understand, you are not the victim of a conspiracy, you are not the victim at all.”
This is not the first time we’ve seen violent men abuse women and then transition themselves. Wolf/Haley has apparently been arrested 13 other times though the other arrests did not involve child molestation. As noted above, Haley will at least be headed to a male prison.

Some discussion of the case here and the fact that the judge still allowed the offender to be referred to as a woman in court.
Finally, JK Rowling had another lengthy post on X yesterday. She wasn’t specifically referring to this case, but to the trans cultural project generally. Abuse of common language has been the key to their success.
‘He has a point, but he’s too blunt.’
From the start, a key tactic of the gender identitarians has been linguistic prescription, and it’s proved shockingly successful. Trans activists’ shibboleths and euphemisms have been allowed to penetrate the upper echelons of our culture… https://t.co/DuV4iGkVrl

From the start, a key tactic of the gender identitarians has been linguistic prescription, and it’s proved shockingly successful. Trans activists’ shibboleths and euphemisms have been allowed to penetrate the upper echelons of our culture with devastating consequences to freedom of speech and belief. Huge swathes of liberal media, the arts, academia and publishing have thrown themselves with gusto into the defence of a quasi-religious belief causing provable real world harm, and in their arrogance they’ve been outraged when people they assumed were part of their In Group have refused to march meekly along in lock step.
Time and again, I’ve seen and heard well-educated people who consider themselves critical thinkers and bold truth-tellers squirm when put on the spot. ‘Well, yes, maybe there’s something in what you’re saying, but it’s hateful/provocative/rude not to use the approved language/pretend people can literally change sex/keep drawing attention to medical malpractice or opportunistic sexual predators. Why can’t you be nice? Why won’t you pretend? We thought you were one of us! Don’t you realise we have sophisticated new words and phrases these days that obviate the necessity of thinking any of this through?’
As the vibe shifts, and a lot of people in the elite professions start trying to reposition themselves, the obvious place to start is, ‘it’s not that I couldn’t see your point, but did you have to say it that way?’ We dissenters were supposed to find a way of questioning the chemical castration of children while calling it ‘gender affirming care.’ We were meant to defend the rights of vulnerable women while also using female pronouns for male rapists. We should have found a way to discuss fairness for women and girls in sport, while pretending that the ineradicable physical advantage men have over women doesn’t exist.
Either a man can be a woman, or he can’t. Either women deserve rights, or they don’t. Either there’s a provable medical benefit to transitioning children, or there isn’t. Either you’re on the side of a totalitarian ideology that seeks to impose falsehoods on society through the threat of ostracisation, shaming and violence, or you’re not. The alternative to being ‘blunt’ – using accurate, factual language to describe what was going on – was to surrender freedom of speech and espouse ideological jargon that obfuscated the issues and the harms caused. We’ve always needed blunt people, but we need them most of all when being asked to bow down to a naked emperor.
The judge in this case should have been blunt instead of pretending that a man who molested a girl and who is headed to a male prison for several years should still be addressed as a woman in court.
