Minnesota Governor Tim Walz isn't just responsible for leaving tampons in boys' bathrooms at his public schools.
The Democratic vice presidential nominee is also responsible for funding a “transgender” lobbying group that has filed a “discrimination” lawsuit seeking to put men in women's prisons.
Reduxx reported that after the state Department of Corrections implemented its “gender identity” regulations in January 2023, the department transferred five “trans women” to its women's facility. Two are child sexual abusers and one is a murderer.
Sexual predators
Men posing as women are currently enjoying life at the Shakopee Correctional Institution in Minnesota, Reduxx reports. The Minnesota Correctional Institution in Shakopee is the only facility in the state that houses women.
Elijah Thomas Berryman, 26, is serving a 25-year sentence for first-degree sexual misconduct.
“The other, Sean Windingland, aged 35, sexually assaulted two relatives aged six and posted videos of the abuse and sexual advances on pornographic and pro-pedophile websites,” Reduxx explained.
When questioned by investigators, Windingland admitted to having sexual relations with the girls but claimed they were consenting. He pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct in 2019. Windingland is currently serving a 36-year sentence at MCF Shakopee Prison for Women.
The killer, Bradley Richard Servio, was serving a life sentence for beating a man to death with a hammer and setting the victim's home on fire in November 1995. He also had been convicted of “multiple assaults, robberies and thefts,” Redux continued. “He was quietly transferred to MCF Shakopee in November 2023, five months before the newly drafted gender identity policy was scheduled to go into effect.”
The other two imposters are Nathan Charles Johnson and Craig Lusk, who goes by the name Christina Suzanne.

Rusk was the driving force behind a lawsuit filed in July 2022 that saw the state decide to house men in women's facilities, but he was supported by the nonprofit organization Gender Justice.
That's where Tampon Tim Walz comes in. The Walz administration pumped $448,904 into Gender Justice a year after he sued the Department of Corrections (DOC) on Rusk's behalf for “gender discrimination,” according to Reduxx, which got the figures from OpenTheBooks.com.
As reported by Reduxx, the group's lawsuit uses female pronouns for Rusk and is full of the usual “trans” nonsense, including scientific denials such as, “Gender identity refers to an individual's innate sense and deep understanding of their own gender. Everyone has a gender identity.”
“Rask began taking female hormones in 2009 and underwent chest implant surgery in 2017,” the website reports.
Gender Justice also demanded that Rusk be given “women's underwear” and claimed that DOC “punished Rusk for having breasts and wearing women's clothing.” It also said that Rusk was “repeatedly misgendered and misnamed.”
As Reduxx previously reported, Rask's Facebook account showed him writing relentlessly about seeking female sexual partners, stating that he wanted a “bride from Japan.”
Of course, the state settled: Minnesota taxpayers paid Rusk $495,000, $250,000 of which went to legal fees, and the Department of Corrections then facilitated the men's transfer to a women's prison.
Minnesota legal experts are pleased with the outcome.
“The legal team that handled Rusk's case was awarded the title of 'Lawyer of the Year' by the legal publication Minnesota Lawyer,” Reduxx reported.
The new transgender inmate policy, revised last April and effective in early April 2024, established the agency’s Gender Identity Committee to identify “transgender inmates” or “gender diverse inmates” and make placement recommendations. The document cites as an authority the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), a lobbying group that Reduxx has repeatedly linked with sexologists sympathetic to sex offenders and pedophiles.

Not everyone is happy with Tampon Tim's corrections department.
Alicia Beckman, a prison GED instructor, quit her job for a good reason: Department of Corrections policies created an “unsafe environment.”
She told Alpha News that before the changes, the prison “was a very gender-sensitive institution. We are taught that women are biologically different from men. There is a curriculum specifically for women, and the environment has changed dramatically.”
But more importantly, she said, “Many incarcerated women feel uncomfortable in their housing units, they feel uneasy walking around the grounds, and they feel uneasy in my classrooms.”
And, of course, putting men in women's prisons puts the lives of angry, confused and frustrated women at risk. “Shakopee is a women's correctional facility, so for many of us who work there, that's an uncomfortable atmosphere,” she told the website.
Previously, the jail housed “low-level offenders charged with DUI, theft and drug possession,” Beckman said.
And then we take violent biological males and house them in level 4 facilities. I believe we are re-victimizing and re-traumatizing some of these women. They are incarcerated, but all of them have histories, many of which include physical, sexual and emotional abuse. I believe having men living among these women is traumatic and unsafe for staff.
Other Prisons
Walz and his prison minions certainly know that their policies put female prisoners at risk of rape and murder.
In California, an inmate was transferred to a women's facility after learning he was female in 2021. He was charged with two counts of rape and then returned to a men's prison.
The Women's Liberation Front reported that 33 percent of “trans women” who want to be in prison with real women are sex offenders.
