Christine White, 57, gained notoriety in 1997 and 1998 as police forces from Montreal to Vancouver pursued a crafty robber who targeted banks with light security and often used a receipt book to slip her threatening holdup notes to tellers.
She was also dubbed the Unisex Bandit by Toronto investigators who were baffled about the gender of their suspect in a 1997 holdup of a Bank of Nova Scotia branch.
White, who had a sex change operation in 1993, dressed like a man to carry out her robberies.
She held up 31 banks between May 1997 and November 1998, when she was finally caught after robbing a bank in Belleville.
QuoteDespite spending $60,000 on her sex change, White was left with a raspy and masculine voice that she said rendered her unemployable.
Yet another example of media ignorance.......
