A transgender prisoner serving time for the murder of a 13-year-old Edmonton girl has lost a court bid to stay in a women’s prison.
Michael Williams, who now goes by the name Michelle Autumn, was given a life sentence in 2007 for the first degree murder of the 13-year-old, who was lured from the West Edmonton Mall to a golf course, where she was sexually assaulted and then killed. Autumn was 17 years old at the time and was sentenced as an adult.
