    Convicted killer sues state for free sex change

    McFarland said correction officials fear that if Kosilek has the surgery and returns — as a woman — to the all-male, medium-security prison in Norfolk where he is now serving his sentence, he could be a target for assault by male inmates. If he is transferred to the women's prison in Framingham, there are concerns he will pose a risk to female inmates there, McFarland said.

    Ah the 'women are more at risk than men' philosophy, stronger than ever!

    Personally, ignoring his sexuality - or preference of - i say tough luck. He should not be elegdible for a costly operation, that really comes down a choice in 'lifestyle' rather than medical necessity.
