Peta Credlin: Hey Jacinta, you can’t put your head in the sand over transgender paedophile

It is “entirely inappropriate” for Jacinta Allan – who claimed she could not comment on decisions made within the Victorian prison system – to call herself a leader, writes Peta Credlin.

Outrage after transgender paedophile's sentence shortened

Don’t turn away if this is too hard to read because evil happens when good and decent people do nothing. If we don’t start to take back our country, then there’s going to be very little left that resembles the Australia we once knew that was free, fair and prosperous; the envy of the world.

In Victoria, a county court judge has given a biological man who sexually abused his five-year-old daughter a reduced sentence because he was transitioning; the state government’s rules on gender self-identification ensure that this biological male is now housed in a Melbourne women’s prison; and the Premier – who’s otherwise hyper-vocal on the need to crack down on male sexual predators – claims that it would be improper for her to interfere in the decision making of the prison bureaucracy even though the government sets the rules for prisons, funds prisons, and hires and fires the people running them including current corrections commissioner, Larissa Strong.

The activists love to scream at us “respect the science” when it comes to climate change, but if a man wants to call himself a woman in Australia today, the science of biology doesn’t matter. Nor do you need surgery or even a doctor’s sign off. It’s just a quick online self-ID process and forget simple male or female; you can even write your own sex descriptor (see the births, deaths and marriages website www.bdm.vic.gov.au).

For a while, no-one wanted to discuss the ramifications of this decision to upend centuries of human history. Until, eventually, women started to understand that it was their place in language being erased, their hard-won gains that were being eroded, and their safety put at risk. It is women and children that are the real losers here as the recent case in Victoria highlights.

The facts in this case, referred to as DPP v Maloney (a pseudonym given to the offender to protect the identify of his victim, but which also, sadly, protects the perpetrator) are too depraved to detail. Suffice to say that the father – referred to by the judge as ‘Hillary Maloney’ – who sexually abused his five-year-old daughter was given a minimum two-and-half-year sentence because, the judge said, his transition to being a woman reduced his “moral culpability” despite the fact that evidence in the case refers to the father’s “penis” on multiple occasions.

Jacinta Allan takes 'no responsibility' over transgender paedophile prison debacle

Maloney, said the judge, via an online chat room, had become the “slave” of an American paedophile; and for the sexual gratification of his “master”, had produced 13 videos and 64 images of “a variety of sexual and perverse acts” with his daughter.

Maloney knew it was wrong, as did his five-year-old daughter, who objected to it, audibly, on the footage. Yet in sentencing this paedophile, the judge made excuses for Maloney, saying that his master’s “manipulation and coercion”, plus Maloney’s “vulnerabilities”, made him “less able to make objectively the right and healthy choices”.

Honestly, “healthy choices” sounds more like the comment a doctor makes to an unhealthy patient, not what a judge says to a father convicted of abusing his own child. It almost makes light of the horrific nature of this offending.

Victorian County Court Judge Nola Karapanagiotidis claimed that Maloney would “face additional hardship in prison as a relatively young trans woman”.
Victorian County Court Judge Nola Karapanagiotidis claimed that Maloney would “face additional hardship in prison as a relatively young trans woman”.

Addressing the offender, Judge Nola Karapanagiotidis said: “Your environment was a harsh and invalidating one, where you experienced confusion and fear in expressing or exploring your identity. Your past was marked by negative experiences, related and unrelated to being trans, including emotional abuse and parental neglect, impacting your mental health and personality structure”.

In handing Maloney a reduced sentence, Judge Karapanagiotidis, a former legal aid lawyer and refugee specialist before appointment to the bench, claimed that Maloney would “face additional hardship in prison as a relatively young trans woman”. What sort of a judge is more concerned for the perpetrator of these sickening crimes than for the little girl victim and the mother left to pick up the pieces?

For three days last week, Premier Jacinta Allan went to ground rather than face questioning over this abomination. When she eventually emerged, she claimed it would be “entirely inappropriate” for her to comment on decisions made within the Victorian prison system.

What? A father with intact male physiology can sexually abuse his daughter, get a reduced sentence because he’s transitioning, and then be placed in a women’s prison, yet it’s no business of the Premier?

I’ll tell you what is ‘entirely inappropriate’ premier. You, calling yourself a leader, is “entirely inappropriate”. Leaders lead. They don’t hide from tough questions; they don’t run from the hard stuff.

Jacinta Allan talks a big game, but she has never faced an election as premier, instead she was installed into the job after her puppet-master Daniel Andrews resigned. And, like him, she’s allowed a once great state to slide into a crime-ridden, debt-driven, business-leaving joke. Victoria is mocked interstate and overseas. And the fact that she has not already resigned in shame. that’s what is “entirely inappropriate”.

THUMBS UP

NSW Police: We’ll await a court judgment but police are applauded for trying to stop a pro-Palestine march on the Opera House for the second anniversary of October 7 atrocities.

THUMBS DOWN

ISIS ‘Brides’ return to Australia: PM said September 3 “reports are not accurate” and yet on October 3 these Islamist women are secretly returned to Australia. Either the PM knew and lied, or he didn’t. Either way, both are a dereliction of duty.
