The inmate living as a woman at the men’s prison is reported to have almost lost her life after she slashed herself with a razor blade. Daily Mail reports that the staff at the facility had spotted her injuries through a spyhole in her cell door at HMP Littlehey, Cambs. A nurse at the facility fought to stop the “huge” blood loss at the scene. A source reveals to Sunday People: “She must have been desperate. It was ­horrible.“ She’d had hormone therapy and ­developed breasts but she had not had surgery to transform her ­genitals.” The reports further reveal that two other transgender inmates are reported to have committed suicide last year after being jailed in all-male prison facilities to serve their time. According to The Ministry of Justice ­who confirmed that a Littlehey inmate was treated at a hospital, they also disclosed that the inmate has been returned to the prison.
