Three Women in Maine Prison Join Lawsuit Alleging Harassment by Trans Inmate
https://hotair.com/john-s-2/2026/05/28/three-women-join-lawsuit-alleging-harassment-by-trans-inmate-n3815388 (https://hotair.com/john-s-2/2026/05/28/three-women-join-lawsuit-alleging-harassment-by-trans-inmate-n3815388)
Just last month I wrote about an incident like this in Scotland. A trans woman who was being kept in a women's prison there was charged with sexually assaulting fellow inmates. Also last month, a woman serving time at a prison in Windham, Maine filed a lawsuit alleging she was sexually harassed by a trans inmate named Andrea Balcer.
Katie Mountain is serving a 10-month sentence for violating probation at the women's prison in Windham. In a lawsuit, she said she is bunking with Andrea Balcer, a transgender resident at the prison.
In that lawsuit filed on Thursday, Mountain alleged that Balcer has subjected her to graphic sexual stories, trapped her in the bathroom, forcibly kissed her and made repeated threats of rape and impregnation.
The lawsuit also alleges that Balcer told Mountain, "Don’t worry, if you don’t wake up, it’s because I smothered you with a pillow.”
...
Yesterday, three more female inmates at the same prison joined Mountain's lawsuit, claiming they too have experienced Balcer's harassment.
In the updated suit, inmate Jennifer Albert alleges Balcer “subjected her to unwanted sexual contact,” including one incident that involved digital penetration while Albert was suffering from a back injury.
Inmate Michaela Sargent, using masculine pronouns, claims Balcer “routinely harassed her with graphic threats of rape and exposed himself to her.”
Danielle Foster, in the suit, charges that Balcer stood naked in her room while she slept and suggested doing “things” to her in her sleep. Foster also said she was forced to witness other transgender female inmates exposing themselves.
“All four women allege that when they reported these incidents or refused to affirm Balcer’s gender identity, they were met with retaliation,” Dill wrote in a press release. ...
A male claiming to be a woman in order to get potentially intimate access to real women? Who could not foresee that?!

SPLC Wants Indictment Thrown Out For “Vindictive Prosecution”

The latest development is that SPLC has filed a Motion to Dismiss the Indictment for Vindictive Prosecution, focused very heavily on public statements from Trump and others in his administration both before and after the indictment.
From the Motion:
President Trump’s triumphant statement on April 24, 2026, three days after an indictment was unsealed against the Southern Poverty Law Center (“the SPLC”), was the latest manifestation of a top-down, retributive campaign in which he directed his Justice Department to go after those individuals and groups he deemed his political enemies, including the SPLC.
To carry out the President’s directive, others in the Administration targeted the SPLC, which now faces criminal charges for exercising its First Amendment right to identify, report on, and criticize extremist hate groups. The Administration has falsely accused the SPLC of being “anti-Christian,” of aiding the Biden Administration’s “weaponization” of the Department of Justice, of participating in political violence, and, most recently, of helping to “rig” the 2020 election against President Donald Trump. These examples of this Administration’s animus over the past year culminated in the criminal charges against the SPLC—an indictment premised on conclusory accusations but devoid of provable facts or a proper statement of the law….
