   It looks like a textbook case of what Nicola Sturgeon insisted never   
   happens. A transgender butcher in the Scottish borders picks up a primary   
   school girl, takes her to ‘her’ home to ‘look after her’ and then   
   sexually   
   assaults her for 27 hours. Fortunately, the girl escapes.   
      
   ‘Man abducted and sexually assaulted schoolgirl while dressed as a woman’,   
   said the headline on the BBC News website, for once not worrying about   
   misgendering Amy George, whose dead name is Andrew Miller. The High Court in   
   Edinburgh was told that Miller, who pleaded guilty to abduction and sexual   
   assault, ‘identifies as transgender’ and is in the process of transitioning   
   to female.   
      
   Cases like the ‘trans butcher’ as he is inevitably now referred to, and the   
   trans rapist Isla Bryson, who was placed on remand in a women’s prison, tar   
   the entire trans community, unfairly, with the brand of sex offender.   
      
      
   Inevitably, the First Minster, Humza Yousaf, was asked the same questions   
   about the trans butcher, Andrew Miller. Will he/she be sent to Cornton Vale   
   like Isla Bryson or the paedophile, Katie Dolatowski? ‘I can’t comment on a   
   live case’ he told reporters. It was no longer a live case, of course, and   
   he confirmed that Andrew Miller, would be kept in a male prison.   
      
   Under the policy of self-ID, adopted by the Scottish Prison Service in   
   anticipation of the stalled Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill,   
   someone like Amy George/Andrew Miller would in the past have been placed,   
   like Bryson, in the estate of their ‘social gender’. The GRR allows trans   
   people to change their legal sex by declaration after three months, with no   
   medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria.   
      
   So far Mr Yousaf hasn’t volunteered whether Miller is transgender or not.   
   Miller opted to allow himself to be called by his ‘dead name’ in court and   
   be ‘misgendered’ by being referred to as ‘he’. In future, once the   
   fuss has   
   died down, he may well decide to revert to his/her trans name. There is no   
   statute of limitations on self-ID.   
      
   Is this not precisely the kind of case that feminists like Joanna Cherry had   
   been warning about? A predatory man adopting a woman’s identity the better   
   to abuse a girl? Not according to Shona Robison, the SNP minister who   
   steered the GRR bill through the Scottish Parliament. She had previously   
   claimed there was ‘no evidence that predatory men have ever had to pretend   
   to be anything else to carry out abusive behaviour’.   
      
      
   The Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland Bill) remains stalled under Section   
   35 of the Scotland Act. The UK government has rejected self-ID and believes   
   the bill conflicts with the Equality Act and endangers women and girls.   
   Humza Yousaf has launched a legal action to have this overturned. Somehow, I   
   don’t think he’s going to succeed.
