Transgender Scot found guilty of raping two women when she was a man

A transgender woman has been found guilty of raping two women when she was a man. Isla Bryson, from Clydebank, West Dunbartonshire, committed the crimes before she transitioned to female and when she was known by the "dead name" Adam Graham.

A six-day trial at the High Court in Glasgow heard Bryson raped two women: one in Clydebank in 2016 and one in Drumchapel, Glasgow, in 2019. She met both her victims online, with prosecutors saying she "preyed" on vulnerable women.

Bryson denied the charges, telling the court she "would never hurt another human being". After less than a day of deliberation, a jury found her guilty of both rape charges.
