Transgender sex offender raped a friend with 'her penis' just weeks after ... trends now
A trans predator has been convicted of raping a friend with 'her penis' just weeks after being released from prison for child sex offences.
Lexi-Rose Crawford, a biological male who now identifies as female, had previously been handed a four-year jail term after having sex with an underage girl she met online.
She only began using a female name and feminine pronouns around January 2019, when she was released from prison, but within weeks had raped a vulnerable friend.
At Bristol Crown Court, Crawford, 24, claimed to suffer from blackouts and said she could not remember the incident, but was convicted by jurors on Friday after less than two hours of deliberations. The former volunteer guitar technician stared blankly ahead as guilty verdicts to rape and sexual assault were returned. She was released on conditional bail until sentencing on May 10.
It is believed Crawford will be sent to a male prison if she is handed a custodial sentence, despite being referred to as Miss by lawyers and Judge Michael Longman throughout the four-day trial.

The rape indictment also specified that 'her penis' was used during the rape on the formal indictment used in court.
