A “trans woman” convicted murderer — imprudently permitted to serve his sentence in a women’s state prison — expects a federal court to order the prison to house him in the general population.

The deranged man in this case, Reduxx reported in detailing his monstrous crimes, is one Thomas Preston Lamb. Fake name: Michelle Renee. Lamb is in restrictive incarceration at the women’s prison in Topeka, Kansas, because he is still a dangerous murderer, even at 82 years old. 

His lawsuit alleges that the state and its officers are “discriminating” against him and violating his due-process rights by keeping him away from women prisoners.

His Crimes

Most likely, those women prisoners are quite content to keep Lamb where he is … where he can’t murder another woman.

In December 1969, Lamb murdered Karen Sue Kemmerly, 24, “after she commented he was a ‘handsome man,’ and told him he was ‘very capable sexually,’ which sent him into a violent rage as he saw himself as a woman,” Reduxx explained:

Lamb strangled the woman to death, and left her nude corpse in a cornfield. The young student’s body was found approximately five days after her death on December 7.

In addition to Kemmerly, Lamb was also convicted on charges of kidnapping 18-year-old Patricia Ann Childs on January 15, 1970. Childs was returned to her family after her father paid out a $3,500 ransom demanded by Lamb. During the ordeal, Lamb bound Childs’ hands and raped her, according to court documents, though he was never formally charged for the sexual assault.

He was convicted of robbery, first-degree murder, two counts of aggravated kidnapping, and other charges, and sentenced to three consecutive life terms in prison.

A jailhouse psychiatrist blamed the “female version” of Lamb for the murder, Reduxx noted.

Despite that record, Reduxx reported last year, prison officials “quietly” moved him to the women’s prison after he underwent “gender reassignment surgery,” which he received after prison officials met his ridiculous requests for women’s underwear, estrogen therapy, and testosterone blockers.

The Lawsuit

After the transfer, however, prison officials prudently assigned Lamb to restrictive housing.

The reason: He’s a violent, highly dangerous maniac who just happened to commit murder.

In November, he sued the state and prison officials for violating his rights. In January, a court dismissed some of his claims, and on April 3, a judge gave him one month to provide a reason he should find in favor of Lamb’s discrimination claims. One complaint is that he is treated as a sex offender despite never being convicted as one.

When Lamb landed in the women’s prison following surgery, he refused to answer the prison therapist’s questions about his crimes and convictions, the judge explained.

The warden found Lamb’s “refusal to answer questions about her convictions worrying,” the judge wrote:

Because Plaintiff’s most serious crimes are violent actions specifically against women, and because this would be the first time in 50 years that Plaintiff would be cohabitating with women, Plaintiff’s refusal to answer was a red flag.

Thus, the restrictive housing, albeit with “incremental exceptions to her restrictive housing limitations to observe her behavior under conditions increasingly similar to those in general population.”

Lamb “has been allowed multiple exceptions to certain rules of restrictive housing,” the judge continued:

Plaintiff has never been restrained when exiting her cell, an otherwise required aspect of her OSR [Other Security Risk] status. Plaintiff has been approved for dayroom time and has had it lengthened to 1.5 hours in the morning and 1.5 hours in the evening. She has been allowed to run outside for 1 hour every morning, at her request, along with special shower times to accommodate her runs. Plaintiff has been approved for a job, at her request, as a pod porter in which she cleans the pod and shower. Plaintiff has also received overrides to purchase items not typically allowed in restrictive housing, such as makeup and earrings.

Although in restrictive housing, Lamb has broken prison rules by interacting with another inmate, and is charged with lewd behavior.

The judge declared that Lamb’s claims did not prove discrimination. He has until May 3 to “show good cause” why his complaint shouldn’t be dismissed.

Other Cases

Lamb isn’t the only “transgender woman” inmate who wants access to women’s facilities. And one who received it is accused of molesting a woman inmate.

In 2021, prison officials in Washington state unwisely moved violent sex offender Christopher Williams to a women’s unit.

Officials housed him with an inmate identified as “Mary,” who reported that he began pressing for sex, Reduxx reported.

“He said to me, ‘I don’t know why you don’t want [my d**k]. Everyone else does,’” Mary explained. “Then he started to follow me into the bathroom. And one time he told me, ‘Just so you know, I can get you wherever I want.’”

Officials only moved Williams out of Mary’s cell after a prison guard caught him molesting her in her sleep, she said.

While prison officials nationwide are dealing with bogus discrimination claims from “transgender women” now, they had better be prepared for the lawsuits to come from the women those men rape.
