The Crying Game / TRANSGENDER DISCUSSION

[HairOfTheDog]

California corrections officials argued in court that ^ Norsworthy has been receiving adequate medical care for years -- including counseling and hormone therapy. Corrections officials are concerned about what happens next if they are mandated to facilitate the sex change operation.

Snip:
In 1987, Norsworthy was convicted of murder and sentenced to life behind bars. She is now being held at an all-male prison called Mule Creek State Prison, some 40 miles from Sacramento. Officials have argued that if she has the surgery, keeping her in that facility — or any men’s prison — could put her at risk for sexual assault. Moving her to a women’s prison, they said, could put her or other inmates at risk because she has a history of domestic violence.

It's very odd that I couldn't find any details about the murder that Norsworthy was convicted of committing; not anywhere. I finally found this in an image search.
