Sometimes I worry that I am stepping on the toes of former Washington Times reporter and editor Robert Stacy McCain and his series entitled Crazy People Are Dangerous by using the title myself, but sometimes the crazy becomes too blatant to ignore. This site previously reported on the brutal assault by a 13-year-old boy claiming to be a girl on a 12-year-old girl at Pennbrook Middle School, and how the credentialed media are mostly keeping the fact that the alleged assailant is nuttier than a fruitcakesuffers from gender dysphoria.

I also noted, just before noon on Wednesday, that even though the assault was a week ago, not only have the credentialed media kept quiet about the allegation that ‘Melanie,’ the name the alleged assailant has chosen to use, is reported to be ‘transgender,’ but the media have not reported in anything I have seen any claims that the report of the alleged assailant’s ‘transgender’ status is false.

Well, now he’s getting worse:

Transgender student accused of beating preteen student attacked sheriff deputies at hearing

Tuesday, April 23, 2024 | 7:50 AM EDT

A Pennsylvania middle school student, a biological male who identified as a female and who is accused of beating a 12-year-old with a Stanley cup tumbler last week, allegedly attacked sheriff deputies at a hearing on Monday.

The act of violence allegedly came after a judge ruled that the student, who attends Pennbrook Middle School in the suburbs of Philadelphia, was to be held at the Montgomery County Youth Detention Center in Eagleville because of the violent attack at the school.

“The judge ordered that the juvenile be detained at the Youth Center,” Upper Gwynedd Police Chief David Duffy told the Washington Examiner in an email Monday night. “Upon hearing this, the juvenile grabbed a nearby water jug, swung it at sheriff’s deputies, and resisted being handcuffed.”

Perhaps, just perhaps, the wiser thing to do when you are facing the judge in a criminal matter is not to commit another criminal act in front of that judge. That ‘transgender girl’ sure was exhibiting some ‘toxic masculinity’ there, but, at 13-years-old, he would normally be right in the middle of male puberty, his system being flooded with testosterone, unless he is on some sort of medication which would prevent that.

Monday’s outburst came after the student attacked a seventh grader last week in the school cafeteria, which the Washington Examiner previously reported.

Video surveillance from that day showed the victim being attacked from behind and repeatedly hit in the back of the head with a Stanley cup tumbler. The attack left “blood everywhere,” according to one student.

“I was in lunch, and all of the sudden, I hear all of this screaming and everybody running,” Emily, a student, said at a school board hearing last Thursday. “I see Mel running in after somebody, and everyone’s screaming and running.”

That statement would seem to confirm other reports that the alleged assailant was using the name “Melanie.”

Law enforcement officers and school district administration officials identified the victim as a girl but refused to specify whether the attacker was male or female. The assailant was later identified as a transgender student by parents and other adults who spoke at a school board hearing after the attack.

That ‘Melanie’ is really a boy seems to have been widely known at the school.

There’s more at the original, but, other than the original report on Monday by reporter Maddie Hanna, The Philadelphia Inquirer has had no follow-up on a story, at least as of 9:29 PM EDT on Wednesday, that has received some national attention. Montgomery County is directly adjacent to Philadelphia, and the Inky is supposed to be the area’s ‘newspaper of record.’

The credentialed media are declining to publish the names of either the alleged assailant or his victim, because both are minors. At just 13-years-old, it’s almost certain that ‘Melanie’ will not be charged as an adult, and while he might spend some time in juvenile detention, he’ll be out more probably sooner than later. But what he really needs is some serious mental help, because for whatever reasons exist, he is not coping well in life.
