As I’ve reported several times before, the second-biggest Big Lie of transgenderism — the first being, of course, that gender and sex are not synonyms — is that “trans” people are under unique threat of violence from the rest of us. In fact, if anything, the reverse is true: transgenders are not only at far lower risk of murder than everyone else, they’re far more likely to be perpetrators of violence than vice-versa.
But behind the statistics of transgender murderers are the vile stories of the deranged men who hate women so much they want to replace them — some of them, by erasing women as horrifically as possible.
“Michael Maria Penttila”, born Jukka Torsten Lindholm, is Finland’s only known serial killer. He is a cautionary tale of both overly-lax “progressive justice”, and the reality of transgender violence.
“Penttila”/Lindholm’s woman-erasing career began in at least 1981, when at 16 he kidnapped and attempted to rape and strangle a 15-year-old girl. Despite a criminal record already encompassing theft and attacks, the nascent woman-killer served just a year in juvie. Barely out of youth detention, he murdered his mother.
Less than a year later, he abducted two 12-year-old girls. He strangled one to death and raped the other before she made her escape. Lindholm was ultimately sentenced to just seven years for what was ruled not a murder, but “assault or negligent homicide”. He was paroled after barely five years.
A year later, he murdered again, choking a 42-year-old woman to death. This time, he was sentenced to a lengthy… ten years.
It was during this unpremeditated stretch of harsh Finnish imprisonment that, like more and more murderers and rapists these days, Lindholm first began to wear dresses and women’s underwear. Despite furiously denying that he was transsexual just a few years earlier, and worshipping hyper-masculine idols like Rambo and The Terminator, Lindholm began identifying as a woman.
The ever-compliant Finnish justice system promptly shipped him off to a women’s prison. Inside, he married female murderer Hannele Pentholm — from whom he adopted his new name. The sado-sexual male murderer of women now claimed to be a “trans lesbian”.
In late 2008, he was paroled again. You’ll not be surprised to learn that within months, he tried to strangle two more women.
By now, surely, even the “progressive” Finnish justice system would realise that they had an unrepentant serial murderer on their hands? Indeed, an evaluation profiled him as a very dangerous offender.
Naturally, he was sentenced to less than four years for each of his latest attempted murders.
Despite an escape from prison, though, Lindhom/“Penttila” was paroled after just six years.
After another sentence of two years for an aggravated criminal offence, Lindholm committed his last murder to date: a woman who recognized her new neighbour called him a “serial strangler”. So, he strangled her.
In a rare outbreak of sense, this time he was sentenced to life. While a Court of Appeal decided that there was insufficient evidence that Lindholm had committed the murder with serious premeditation. The bag containing strangulation equipment that he had with him was not sufficient to prove sound consideration. Nor the fact that Lindholm stayed in the dead woman’s apartment for more than two days, and tried to erase his traces.
But, spare a thought for the real victim in all this: the poor, persecuted “trans woman”. The research subject perceives himself or herself as belonging to a minority because he or she has a trans and S&M personality.
That’s just the start, though: She likes to wear women’s clothes and wants to look like a woman, but that alone is not enough for her… According to the research subject, the sexual act will continue to be sadomasochistic games for him even after the gender change. Once or twice a week he has to have S&M sex with a playmate.
No doubt the Finnish courts will grant his wish. “Trans rights are human rights”, after all.
