N.J. moves transgender woman back to men’s prison, raising legal questions Updated 1:13 PM; The New Jersey Department of Corrections classifies Rae Rollins as a woman, but she is currently locked up in a men’s prison. Rollins, who is 25 and transgender, was recently moved from the state’s only women’s facility to New Jersey State Prison in Trenton, according to online prison records. No other person listed as “female” statewide is incarcerated in a male facility, records show. Two lawyers not involved with the case said the transfer may violate New Jersey’s Law Against Discrimination. “This is just as simple as it sounds,” Celeste Fiore, a partner at Argentino Fiore Law & Advocacy LLC, said about the statute in general. “There’s no stretch, there’s no legal hurdles you have to jump through, there’s no logic puzzles.”
