A transgender woman who was found guilty of killing her baby submitted a written legal complaint against President Trump. She claimed that the president’s negative comments towards transgender individuals contributed to multiple incidents of sexual abuse she faced while imprisoned in an all-male facility in Indiana.
Autumn Cordellionè, previously known as Jonathan C. Richardson, asserted that the president’s strong language encouraged her attackers to commit violent assaults and rapes in January, shortly after she was moved from protective custody to Westville Correctional Facility to start her 55-year prison term.
In a 13-page lawsuit presented in the Southern District of Indiana on April 1, she accused Trump of being negligent for allegedly knowing that some individuals might act upon his words.

Cordellionè is seeking $3.5 million in damages from the commander in chief.
“President Trump has vowed to defend biological women from gender ideology extremism and restore biological truth to the Federal government,” a White House spokesperson told The Post when asked to comment on the lawsuit.
The Indiana Department of Corrections did not comment on whether Cordellionè was booted from protective custody due to Trump’s executive order mandating federal prisoners be housed in units according to their biological sex.
Cordellionè alleged that prison employees, who are also named in the suit, dismissed her claims of sexual assault — stating that “tax payers” shouldn’t have to pay for her surgery, the complaint showed.
The convicted baby strangler also claimed her assailants mentioned Trump when they attacked her.
“Trump’s president now, and we won’t even get in trouble for f–king you trannies up,” Cordellionè penned in her complaint.

“We’re patriots and even if you tell on us, Trump will pardon us and probably give us a medal.”
Cordellionè detailed “gang affiliated inmates” stabbing her and sexually assaulting her over a four-day period in late January, according to court documents.
She also alleged her Eighth Amendment rights against cruel and unusual punishment was violated.
Cordellionè, who was convicted in 2001 of reckless homicide for strangling her 11-month-old stepdaughter to death, made headlines in February 2024 when she sued an Indian prison chaplain for allegedly refusing her right to wear a hijab before rejecting her identity as a transgender woman.
