Anyone remember her?

[Jayr]

Remember that trans girl that got put in jail for killing her attacker with a pair of scissors?
He had nazi symbols tattooed on him and he and friends started beating her so she stabbed him.

Where is she now? Like what's going on with that story?
Do we know if she's okay in jail, if she's still alive? Or what?

I can't remember her full name so I can't find her on google.

I just hope she's okay.
Her story made me so upset.
Just sending her good vibes.

I wonder if we could send her some stuff.
Like books, or something to cheer her up.
Her story really got to me but I lost track.

"CeCe" McDonald is still in St Cloud prison last time I knew even though she should be in Shakopee women's prison.

Yes I remember her. I also remember that nobody charged the skank who assaulted her first by hitting her with a mug.

Excuse me if I don't shed any tears for the ->-bleeped-<-er she killed. Anyways her sentence is only a few years as I recall.

[Jayr]

Is there any way to reach her?
If I was in prison, I know I'd personally love to receive letters.
(Edit: I'm sure she already gets enough though, so maybe I'd just be annoying.)
For whatever reason, her story really touched me.

WOW. Didn't know about that. WOW..
I hope karma beats her upside the head.

Only a few years is still too much.
I wish I could do something...Argh

It's so weird.
Out of all the stories, hers is the one that got to me the most.
I just can't forget it. I want to help her.

the sentence was 41 months (still too much but the norm for a racist government). I don't think her prisoner number or other contact information is public.

I found her mailing address!!
It says:

She can receive letters and booksin prison: let her know she has a huge amount of ongoing community support and that we are all here for her.

Would I seem annoying if I sent her a letter?
Maybe she already gets too many, I don't know.

I'm sure she needs all the support she can get right now. On the off chance that she is getting too many letters, well then she won't hold it against you specifically...

B4 I hear a bunch of hate from anyone my niece is Afro-American. Now why she is or has been placed in prison is not because she is transgender but because she's both black and transgender.

I don't know, I think that this could have happened to any transwoman.

I don't know why you would hear any "hate" here.  CeCe was widely supported here, and many of our members believe she should have fought the charges.
