Molester Agrees to Sex Change, Castration
Worcester. Convicted child molester and transsexual Sandy Jo Battista has offered to have a sex-change operation and castrate himself to assure the court that he will not commit another sex offense if released, WHDH-TV reported.
In 1983, Battista was sentenced to 12 to 20 years in state prison after pleading guilty to abducting and raping a 10-year-old girl selling fudge.
Battista completed his prison sentence in July, but prosecutors have asked that he be committed to Bridgewater State Hospital.
A psychologist testified Tuesday that Battista is still dangerous.
A judge also ordered Battista to wear a suit to court after Battista asked to dress as movie start Marilyn Monroe.
My comments:
1) A sex-change is hardly a punishment for a "transsexual."
2) A castration comes with a sex-change, so who is "he" fooling?
3) Battista gives transsexuals a bad image.
4) He should have been castrated to begin with.
Love,
