HUNTER: Who’s pushing violent trans killer on female prisons?

Article content

Violent trans sex killer Michael Williams – now improbably known as Bunny Autumn Colasimone – has a buddy somewhere in the justice system.

How else can you explain the Herculean efforts to get the 37-year-old Edmonton child murderer into a Canadian women’s prison?

Most recently, Reduxxx magazine reported that Williams was a bad Bunny during a blink and you’ll miss it, stopover at the women’s Grand Valley Institution (GVI) near Kitchener.

We first wrote about the “horrendous and evil” murderer in 2020 and not much has changed.

But the Canadian justice system takes a bad penny approach to crime and punishment, and Williams has turned up once more.

According to former federal convict and activist Heather Mason, they are gaming the system once more.

“He constantly changes his name, three different ones so far,” Mason told the Toronto Sun. “Women inside tell me about incidents and I’m like, ‘Who is that person?’”

Here’s who they are: In April 2005, Williams was 17 years old when he and several others tortured, sexually assaulted and murdered 13-year-old Nina Courtepatte at an Edmonton-area golf course. Nina was strangled, stabbed and then bludgeoned to death with a hammer.

The sick kid pals called “Pyro” then tried to set Nina’s lifeless body ablaze. Williams was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison – as an adult.

But in Canada murder means never having to say you’re sorry, particularly if you hit the sweet spot on the social justice scale.

Mason said Williams, now identifying as a woman, has their male genitalia intact with a sports bra and crop top the only nod to femininity.

Mason told the Sun she was contacted about Williams’ latest antics by a number of female inmates at GVI. The cons said Williams arrived from the male maximum-security Millhaven penitentiary on March 6.

“GVI is the last place they should be. They should still be locked up in Millhaven,” Mason said.

“He arrived Thursday and was forcibly transferred out on Monday after a tense standoff with CSC negotiation teams and tactical units. He allegedly had a weapon and was threatening to use it against a correctional officer.”

She added: “So, he lasted on Pod 1 for 30 minutes on Thursday. He put his hair up, was posturing, cracking his knuckles, and threatening to fight the women. They all got locked down and two women called me just hours after it happened.”

Someone thought this was all a grand idea.

When I wrote about Williams in 2020, they were in segregation at the maximum security Kent Institution in British Columbia waiting for the lottery ticket transfer to the all-women’s Fraser Valley Institution (FVI).

“He was at FVI before but got transferred back to Kent because he got caught having sexual relations with female inmates,” a jailhouse source told me at the time, adding that the killer “only takes hormone replacement therapy drugs two weeks a month so he can maintain an erection.”

In the past, one of Williams’ – or Bunny’s – biggest boosters has been trans activist Morgane Oger.

“He’s Morgane Oger’s golden boy,” Mason said. “He clearly has help from somewhere in the system to get him into a women’s prison, almost certainly it’s trans rights activists. It’s pretty clear Corrections doesn’t want him there or they wouldn’t have removed him.”

In a tweet back in 2020, Oger characterized a trio of prison sex assaults allegedly committed by Williams as “false allegations” and transphobic.

Of course, the lone person forgotten by Canada’s small army of social justice warriors is Nina Courtepatte, 13 forever.

The Toronto Sun has contacted the Correctional Service of Canada for comment but did not immediately receive a response.
