Trans serial killer strikes again in NYC
-
The dismembered body of a woman (cis-female) was found in Brooklyn in early March... Cops knew where to look for the killer, and forensic science confirmed it: 83 y/o Harvey Marcelin, a trans-woman and convicted murder.
Marcelin had 2 prior murder convictions (2 other cis-women), for whose killings she had already served time, and was on "lifetime parole" for the other killings.
For the record, 3 similar killings makes Marcelin a "serial killer" (a definition, not just my thinking)...
As I always say: cite a LOCAL SOURCE!

@bi4smooth Is the point of this post to let us know NY has another serial killer, or is this a commentary on trans persons? Crazy knows no demographic boundaries.

Are you against talking about when trans-people do bad things?
Why do liberals think it's only ok to talk about CIS white guys doing bad things.

I'm against talking about individual crazy people and trying to generalize their mental problem onto an entire class of persons who happen to share a trait with the crazy person.
This serial killer is as much evidence that trans persons are murderers as Jeffery Dahmer is evidence that gay men are cannibals.

Talking about a trans-person doing bad is not saying that ALL trans-people do bad.

I agree. Which is why I asked the original poster what the motivation for this post was, especially since it was posted in "Politics & Debate." What political or debate issue does NY having another serial killer touch on? It seemed like the OP was responding to something unstated in his post.

I will grant you that the assailant being trans is what caught my attention, but the truth is my point was a "Law and Order" one: why are Liberals letting serial killers out of jail? Permanent probation?
Read the story and the follow-ups! This 83 y/o psycho (psycho because they're a serial killer, not because they're trans) was tooling around in their motorized scooter with this new victim's limbs stored inside!
Why did this 3rd person have to die?

How is this Liberals letting her out? She was in jail for 34 years for the second manslaughter charge (1985-2019). She wasn't let out of prison early because of being trans.

In this case, "Liberals letting her out" is acknowledgement that the State of NY (where all of this has happened), and even more so the City of New York, is pretty solidly Liberal. (Yes, there are more conservative parts in the Upstate, but again, that's not where this all occurred.)
Let's understand that there is a difference in "let's not be soft on crime" and an acknowledgement that "the criminal justice system has been racially biased in the US since... 1492?"
That said, the reports I read did not include the fact that she was convicted earlier of manslaughter - they only mentioned that she had killed before. I assumed that the earlier convictions had also been for murder.. and my own personal belief is that 1st-degree murder convicts should not - ever - be eligible for parole. Maybe a lower-security prison, but returned to freedom? not so much!

Even those "liberals" down in Texas allow parole for murder. For example, if she'd been given the maximum sentence (non-capital and non-"without parole" that is) according to TX guidelines for murder, she'd have only spend another decade in prison compared to New York. I don't think NY's criminal justice system was as "liberal" here as you think it was.
