A transgender sex offender who raped two women while still living as a man has been jailed for eight years. Isla Bryson was convicted last month of raping two women in 2016 and 2019 while still living as a man known as Adam Graham.
The 31-year-old met both her victims online with prosecutors saying she had “preyed” on vulnerable women. After the jury at the High Court in Glasgow delivered its guilty verdict, judge Lord Scott told Bryson the crimes were “considerable” and that “a significant sentence is inevitable”.
Appearing for sentencing at the High Court in Edinburgh on Tuesday, Bryson was also placed under three years supervision following her release. Judge Lord Scott placed Bryson on the sex offenders register “indefinitely”.
