A trans-identifying biological male who was previously sentenced to two years in juvenile detention for sexually abusing a 10-year-old girl has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for bashing his friend to death with a rock.
James Tubbs, who goes by "Hannah," had been charged with first-degree murder, threatening a witness, robbery, and assault, and pleaded guilty to manslaughter and lesser charges as part of a plea deal, according to Reduxx.
The incident took place in Kern County, California in April 2019. Tubbs and the victim, 22-year-old Michael Clark, had been members of a "survivalist transient group" camping together in Lake Isabella.
Tubbs, 26, was charged in May 2019 and held in a male prison on $1 million bond. Clark's body was recovered from the Kern River three months later.
At the time, Tubbs claimed he had multiple personalities, one of which was prone to committing crimes that he could not remember afterward. He blamed that personality for causing him to kill Clark. Another personality Tubbs dubbed as "transgender-me."
Tubbs had previously boasted about the fact that he was tried as a juvenile for the aforementioned sexual assault and held in a female detention center for minors, noting that although he was arrested while in his twenties, the offense took place just a few days before his eighteenth birthday.
"Don't worry about it," he told his father. "It's a strike, but ... I'm [going to] plead out to them and then plead guilty. They're going to stick me on probation and it's going to be dropped. It's going to be done, done. I won't have to register."
Tubbs was not required to register as a sex offender after serving his two years.
As Reduxx reports, Tubbs was convicted in connection with other instances of sexual abuse of children. He had also been sentenced to four years for attacking a man with a knife and convicted twice of aggravated battery.
In much of the media coverage of Tubbs' sentencing, he is referred to with female pronouns. While California requires inmates to be housed according to their gender identity, it has not yet been confirmed which prison he will end up in. It has been reported that he only began identifying as such after being convicted of sexual assault.
