by Amber RandallSix male sex offenders plan to get gender reassignment surgeries, which could cost English taxpayers almost $100,000. The sex offenders currently reside in a male prison where 71 percent of the inmates have committed sex crimes against children, reports the Daily Star. “HMP Whatton has 12 transgender patients, six of whom are on the pathway for gender reassignment,” an Independent Monitoring Board report revealed. In the late 1990s, British murderer Douglas Wakefield received a transgender surgery. Last year, a U.S. federal judge ruled that it was unconstitutional to prevent a criminal from receiving a sex change.
