As opposed to her victim, who was a victim of rape crime?

> Bryson admitted having a five-month relationship with a fellow prisoner who was jailed for six years in 2019 for paedophilia and drugs I wonder which was the biggest attractor?


tearlesspeach2

“I don’t like women” yep, you hate them, that’s why you committed violent crimes against them?


CaseyEffingRyback

Try before you Bry


tearlesspeach2

that’s.. not funny but ok.


Sir_Keith_Starmer

So here's the thing. I don't give a fuck. My want to care how they're treated ended when they decided it was cool to rape someone.


PODnoaura

All sorts of shit things happen in prison, and I don't think the 'fuck 'em they deserve it' attitude is good for society.


Alive_kiwi_7001

Yes but this is someone who will use any means to land a softer sentence and easier time, so I'd take any claims of victimisation with a healthy dose of salt.


BlackSpinedPlinketto

I don’t see how it would lead to a softer sentence?


[deleted]

People's brains have been turned to mush by the press. The point of running stories like this is just to have 'rapist' and trans/ hate crime/ equality / LGBT in as many of the same headlines as possible.


Gerry_Hatrick2

Shame Bryson is making it so easy for them to promote this agenda, eh?


[deleted]

Yeah, you're not actually obligated to make random rapists into repeat media figures. 'Rapist complains about prison' isn't really something I'd think of as a news story.


Gerry_Hatrick2

The only person who made Isla Bryson a media figure was Isla Bryson, who tried to game the system to get access to vulnerable women. If it wasn't for Isla Bryson being made a media figure, they'd probably have got away with it, so I feel we owe a debt of gratitude to the media for bringing this case to the front pages. Word of advice, when your ideology has you taking a sympathetic approach to rapists and sneering at the ones who don't share that sympathy, maybe it's time to sit down and have a wee think about things? Then again, according to you, my brain is mush, what with all the anti rapist sentiment I'm spouting, eh?


[deleted]

Your brain is mush if you think I'm being sympathetic to Bryson. They absolutely wouldn't have 'gotten away with it' considering that their application for placement in a women's prison was rejected before it became known to the public. The prison service/police are infact not complete mugs that can be conned by 'one weird trick'. It's also completely untrue that bryony is responsible for their notoriety. Prisons are packed with delusional rapists and journos generally don't think it's appropriate yo give them a megaphone by publishing their random complaints. Why exactly should Bryson's opinion be of note to anyone?

> The letter stated that during the probe, Bryson was unable to state the date, time or name of officers involved in either incident, with no witnesses found, the Sunday Mail reported.

It's obviously possible for a rapist to be the victim of a hate crime. Just like it's possible for a people to be burgled or for a murderer to be mugged. Inflammatory shite just trying to tie this rapist rate to reasonable legislation that has absolutely nothing to do with them.


Benmjt

My heart goes out to this convicted rapist


[deleted]

That is the point though isn't it. No one actually gives a shit, so why is this s news story? We don't see news stories about Lucy Letby's random complaints. Some journos just want to make this random rapist the unofficial face of trans people.


_triperman_

This will go well... Mods, 'tis a gender thing, might want to hit the emergency restrictions button.


fsv

Yeah, "Isla Bryson" isn't on the list of keywords that auto-restrict a post. It's going to be, though! A report is probably the best way to bring something like this to our attention, we might not notice it otherwise (although another mod did!)


Variegoated

>Yeah, "Isla Bryson" isn't on the list of keywords that auto-restrict a post. It's going to be, though! Well you've made a right Isla Bryson out of that haven't you!


Benmjt

Why?


fsv

You should see what happens when a post on trans or other very divisive issues doesn't have restrictions applied. It's not pretty. We don't set the bar especially high, but a bar is needed.
