Safe Injection Sites

Woman Sentenced for Illegal Butt Injections has to be one of the crazier non-British headlines you'll encounter.

Of course, things get even crazier when you get to the defense argument:

Defence lawyer Calvin Barry said Reid was born in Venezuela with both male and female genitalia. Despite surgery to correct the condition by her fifth birthday, she suffered throughout her life.

A pre-sentence report indicated Reid was giving her crime proceeds to her abusive, drug-addicted lover, who was living outside Ontario.
Leaving the gender of the lover out of the report is almost certainly intentional, not accidental.
