Marjorie’s Law
Manage episode 438001945 series 2830310
Rosemary Harwood, is as genuine, honest and raw as you can get. Rosie doesn’t own a computer, so we had to settle for a phone interview. The sound isn’t great, but if you can persevere, it’s well worth a listen. I’d rather you hear our interview than not.
Rosie’s trans daughter Marjorie (who has since passed away due to kidney disease) alleged horrific sexual abuse during custodial sentences she served in a Tasmanian prison for shoplifting, bail breaches and other relatively minor offences. Rosie states the prison ignored protocols and procedures regarding transgender, transexual and Intersex prisoners, in placing Marjorie in a male prison. ‘Marjorie’s Law’ is Rosie’s campaign to highlight the inadequacies of prison systems which ignore basic human rights such as dignity and respect and her wish for better recognition and protection of transgender people in Australia’s prison services
