Isla Bryson case
Controversial imprisonment of transgender woman
In January 2023, Isla Bryson, a 31-year-old Scottish transgender woman from Clydebank, Dunbartonshire, was convicted of the rapes of two women. The rapes occurred prior to Bryson's gender transition. The case caused controversy after Bryson was remanded to a women's prison to await sentence, though she was segregated from the other prisoners pending risk assessment, following which she was transferred to the male estate. The case subsequently used to criticise the Scottish Parliament's passage of the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill, despite the bill not having been in effect at the time.
