Based on the close-fitting clothing that the accused is wearing in the link photos, it would be difficult to convince most viewers that he is not a man, regardless of how he would like to be addressed.
What I find deeply disturbing, from the link, is his legal counsel's assertion that because he is due to complete transition, then that may be used as a basis to acquit him of the charges.
Does the counsel wish to imply that because he is now legally a woman, he is no longer responsible for the crimes he committed when he was a man?
That will be massive comfort to anyone who wants to go out and murder twenty strangers as a Satanist, and then convert to Christianity as a legal swerve to avoid the consequences!
That is surely making a mockery of the premise of freedom of identity in order to escape legal sanction for a crime.
