In August of 2013, a mother took her daughter to the library for a little summer reading. She was browsing books just a few rows over when her child was molested by a guy known as James.
Sadly, the attack happened near locked restrooms. That’s where James assaulted the four-year-old girl.
The victim told police she escaped when Tubbs went to retrieve a bathroom key, and she said Tubbs exposed himself and touched her. The girl told police he ordered her, “Just do it.”
She was shouting and “crying hysterically” and pointing at her mouth and private parts when she found her mother, according to the documents.
The girl and her mother identified Tubbs, wearing a ripped black shirt and shorts with blonde hair, as the suspect when responding officers arrived.
One year later, James morphed into Hannah Tubbs. He changed his pronoun, but he didn’t change his predatory behavior. Thus, he attacked a ten-year-old girl in a bathroom. After which, Tubbs received a light sentence and headed off to a juvenile facility. There, she showed no remorse. In fact, she bragged about her negligible consequences thus far.
The Trans Excuse
Apparently, being transgender is a ‘get out of jail free’ card.
Fox News elaborates:
She boasted that nothing would happen to her after she pleaded guilty due to Democrat Gascon’s policies and laughed that she won’t have to go back to prison or register as a sex offender. She also made explicit remarks about the victim that are unfit to print and instructed her father to begin referring to her with female pronouns.
“So now they’re going to put me with other trannies that have seen their cases like mine or with one tranny like me that has a case like mine,” Tubbs says. “So when you come to court, make sure you address me as her.”
She received a sentence of two years at a juvenile facility because the case remained in juvenile court, adhering to one of the progressive prosecutor’s day-one directives barring “children” from being tried as adults. She could serve as little as six months and won’t have to register as a sex offender.
While I get that some children shouldn’t be tried as adults, such a directive cannot be a blanket rule. Some “children” are anything but. And what of the victim? What happened to her childhood?
Disgraceful Disregard
Sadly, the justice system doesn’t always bring justice. While the court system seems obsessed with protecting Hannah Tubbs, her victims are just collateral damage.
At one of Tubbs’ hearings, a DA representative read the 2014 victim’s impact statement, which said in part, “I think back to that day more often than I would like, and it makes me sick.”
“New Year’s Day of 2014,” she continued. “My family almost never goes out for New Year’s, but my brother wanted to do something good for the family and treat us out to breakfast at Denny’s…It didn’t end well in the slightest.”
In the eight years since the attack, she hasn’t been able to live her life like she used to, she said.
“Life has only gotten harder,” she explained. “It put me and my brother in therapy, not only for my well being, but because he felt horrible that he couldn’t do anything to stop what happened.”
For years, she felt like she was being watched, unsafe and the “constant reminder of how defenseless” she was. She even felt uncomfortable around male teachers, family and friends.
“These people are close to my heart, and I can’t even feel comfortable around them,” she said. “It’s an awful feeling.”
“Then there’s the strangers of the world I pass by,” she added. “I take a glance and can’t help but think there’s evil intent behind those eyes. So I stay inside.”
Backpedaling 101
Thank goodness Tubbs inspired Gascon to rethink his position. For the victims’ sake.
Gascon has since backtracked on some of his controversial directives, admitting that certain charges should be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
“Like every responsible office, we learn as we go, take feedback from the community, and make necessary adjustments based on our experiences and the complex nature of this work,” he said in February, adding that “a small number of cases” necessitate flexibility denied to his prosecutors under his edicts.
“Specifically, we learned a lot from the Hannah Tubbs case about the need for a policy safety valve,” he added.
He also admitted that Tubbs went on after the 2014 attack to commit other offenses – including one in which DNA evidence linked her to the Denny’s assault.
Gascon’s office did not immediately respond to questions about the 2013 case. The embattled DA is currently facing his second recall push in less than two years on the job.
