Although she told the two arresting officers she was a woman, she was ultimately booked as a man after being interviewed by Sgt. Tania Bell of the city's Gay and Lesbian Liaison Unit.
...
Bell ultimately classified Soto as a "transgendered male."
...
Soto told investigators that she informed the marshals she was not a man but was "mocked" and called "thing."
oh, waow...
They were so sure she was a male-bodied individual it took them a whole weekend to finally do an examination and confirm she had a female body -- even after an inmate yelled out that she was a she.
So someone still sporting a penis will be shoved in with the other males and no excuses/backtalk/do-overs, etc.
Hope this blows up even further...

Good god, it doesn't even look like she's a transman. And clearly, if she kept saying she was a woman, she isn't one.
I think they mistook her for an MtF.

It's too bad she didn't have her act together. She could have taken the city to court for a megabuck or two. But she'll be discounted as a burned out crack ho.
