one of the problems, at least in the UK, has been that transgender female prisoners have attacked weaker female prisoners:

You mean that after being transferred to female facilities, male prisoners who identify as transgender have attacked weaker female prisoners, right?

The term "transgender female prisoners" would be female inmates who identify as men.

I am using the Daily Mail reference - which is 'transgender female' that "transitioned" from male to "female". Eg:

It follows cases of transgender female prisoners sexually assaulting fellow inmates. In 2018, Karen White - who was born a man but was placed in women's prison HMP New Hall after telling authorities of his identification as a woman - sexually assaulted two female inmates

Take it up with them
