The Spokane woman arrested in a federal raid Wednesday made her first court appearance Friday.
Donna Perry is being held at the Spokane County Jail, where a complication concerning her gender has her isolated from other inmates.
She’s listed on the jail roster by the name Douglas Perry, but her gender is listed as female. Perry underwent a gender change which now means she has to be kept separate from the rest of the jail population.
Authorities say people who are transgender, transsexual, intersex or transitioning are kept separate from the population for their own safety.
Perry was taken into custody Wednesday on a federal criminal complaint as a felon is possession of a firearm. Agents pulled ammunition and weapons from her Spokane home.
