This is so dangerous. It's just like when they call a convicted male rapist a "she" even when the "woman" clearly has an adams apple and a 5'clock shadow. How are people suppose to be alert when they don't know what to look for? If you refer a male offender as a woman and don't show photos people are going to assume it's an actual female predator, not a man who ID's as a woman, and if you don't mention sex or description at all, then what's the point of asking the public for help?

They even did this about a missing teen once. ~6 foot 200 pound autistic teen boy IDed as a girl so that's how they reported the story. 'Missing Teen Girl Trinity wearing a purple jacket and cat ears,' or something. He was found dead in the river. I still wonder if his life could've been saved.

Anyone who is looking for a missing 16-year-old girl is not going to zero in on this guy. Not to mention that IDing the body that had been submerged for more than a month and a half would entail IDing the skeleton as male. It basically requires the family to admit to police that their child is trans, not that there should be any doubt based on the photos here.

Yeah, like recently a trans pedo was caught and the BBC headline talked about a woman. It's pure madness.
