A beefy FDNY calendar boy with a weakness for glamorous transsexual strippers was sentenced to five years probation today for assaulting and then continuing to compulsively contact one of his exotic she-male exes.

Taylor Murphy, 29, had last come to court with a towering replacement transsexual stripper on his arm, but arrived at court today with a pretty, biological gal-pal at his side instead -- a platonic, childhood sweetheart, his lawyer explained.

"I just want to stay out of trouble so I can regain being a part of the fire department," the hunky former hose handler said after winning his no-jail sentence.

A hulking ex-firefighter accused of violently attacking his transgender ex-girlfriend walked away Monday with a jail-free sentence for the 2011 melee.

In December, Taylor Murphy, 29, was acquitted of felony strangulation and witness tampering charges, but was convicted of misdemeanor criminal mischief and assault, and felony criminal contempt for violating an order of protection when he contacted Claudia Charriez more than 1,000 times after the blow-out.

A Manhattan judge admonished the disgraced smoke eater for his behavior - he lost his FDNY job after the conviction - but spared him time behind bars, instead sentencing him to five years of probation.

Not sure what I detest more, the fact that both articles sensationalize what would otherwise be a run-of-the-mill domestic violence case because the victim is trans, the use of the S-slur by the first article, or the fact that someone (regardless of gender) gets basically no penalty for trying to strangle another human (whose gender is also immaterial).

Yes an amen to that entire reply!

A little more about the victim of the crime, who is more than a "stripper" or "sex worker".  The sensationalizing by the tabloid is de rigueur.

She is an incredibly beautiful woman! It's a shame that she was beat up twice that we know of now, once by the former fireman and then by the owner of the modeling agency, what a shame. Good job digging up these links Jamie D!
