Transgender Inmate Faces Rape Accusations In Women's Prison
Janiah Monroe, a transgender inmate at the Logan Correctional Center, is now facing allegations of rape of an inmate and was overruled by the governor’s office to be moved back to the men’s facility.
#YessGirl An inmate reported to the staff that the 30-year-old transgender inmate sexually assaulted her and she wasn’t the only inmate that complained about Monroe. The inmate says that she was also wrongfully punished after reporting that she was raped by Monroe.
According to Illinois Times, Alan Mills, Janiah’s attorney, said that it was a case of consensual sex. "All I can tell you is none (of the accusations) have been found to be founded and all have been denied by her," Mills said.
According to Mills, Monroe has a timeline of sexually gesturing herself, denied taking hormones, and also requested to have a sex-change surgery for her body parts to match her identity.
Three days after Monroe was barred from transferring back to the men’s facility, the accuser filed a Jane Doe lawsuit on February 10th on Monroe.
Last June, the Department of Corrections tried moving Monroe out of Logan after moving from the Pontiac Correctional Center, where she was allegedly assaulted, harassed, and abused by inmates and staff. Janiah also tried committing suicide in October with razor that she was taken away from outside the prison grounds to be treated.
Monroe has been locked up since 2005 with a very long timeline of a concerned troubled path where she has multiple tickets, infractions, inappropriate sexual behavior, sexual misconduct, and more. According to the Department of Corrections, she is serving time for 11 felonies, including second degree murder, attempted murder, aggravated battery, aggravated battery involving a government employee, three counts of aggravated battery involving a peace officer, and other charges.
