Thousands of child abuse images found on sex-change pervert's computer

http://www.kentonline.co.uk/kentonline/news/2010/november/1/sex-change_pervert.aspx

A pervert going through a sex change says he downloaded 14,000 child abuse images to find out what it is like to grow up as a girl.

Graham Newley has legally changed his name to Gillian Rebecca and lived as a woman since 2000.

His lawyer said the 52-year-old "had got to the point of pre-operative assessment for full transgender surgery to change her from a male to a female".

14000 is a bit much.
only good part of the account is that the police got the terms right.

Wow, that's the most stupid excuse I've ever heard in my life.

It ranks way up there!

"sex-change pervert" For many people, that's redundant.  And that is because the media has a history of linking the two together.

Was this man a Christian?  If so would the media report "Christian pervert"? 

One day we might actually hear someone like this is a deviant and then at the end of the report there might be a mention the deviant also had some gender issues or was a Christian.  But, maybe not.  Maybe it won't matter.

This burns me up as well. I get a lot of my news/information from the Huffington Post and they like to sensationalize things like this as well. The most popular article about transsexuals on the HP is when a transsexual puked on a movie star. Good grief. Even the most liberal news sources are transphobic as hell.
