-- BARRIE -- An inmate of an institution for the criminally insane who insists she is a "female trapped inside a male's body" is begging for a $15,000 assessment that would qualify her for a government-funded sex change.Unbelievably... that isn't the most outrageous part of this story.
Wearing a skirt and high-heeled shoes, Taylor -- formerly named Vance Egglestone until she got a legal name change -- began transitioning into a female in 2000, with extensive hormone therapy, nose surgery and $15,000 worth of permanent hair removal.
In 1976, Egglestone was found not criminally responsible by reason of insanity of the brutal rape of a woman. Since then most of her time has been spent at Oakridge.Yeah... "ACTING OUT". That just about covers it, huh?
"I was a female trapped inside a male's body," she said. "I started "acting out" in ways that I thought a male was supposed to act ... my head was in a spin back then."
Paging Dr Dawg.
