J.K. Rowling Criticizes Media for Misgendering Transgender Killer

J.K. Rowling criticized Sky News for referring to a convicted murderer, Scarlet Blake, as a "woman" without acknowledging her transgender identity. Blake, who was sentenced to life for a murder, will serve her sentence in a men's prison. Rowling has been vocal about gender identity issues, particularly in relation to new guidelines for transgender prisoners by the Scottish Prison Service, arguing against allowing violent and sexually predatory men to be placed in women's prisons.
