Justice Served: Unveiling the Names of Brianna Ghey’s Teenage Killers

The perpetrators responsible for the murder of trans schoolgirl Brianna Ghey, identified as Scarlett Jenkinson and Eddie Ratcliffe, both 16, have been publicly named as they receive life sentences for their heinous crime. Mrs Justice Yip revealed their identities after lifting the anonymity order, given the severity of their actions. Throughout the trial, the duo had been referred to as Girl X and Boy Y, with their disturbing shared interest in violence, torture, and serial killers highlighted during court proceedings. Their joint planning of “dark fantasies” was a chilling aspect discussed by the jury. At the time of Brianna's tragic murder on February 11 last year, Jenkinson and Ratcliffe, both 15 then, had compiled a “kill list” that included four other teenagers. During the sentencing at Manchester Crown Court, Brianna's father, Peter Spooner, expressed his devastation, describing Jenkinson and Ratcliffe as “pure evil.” In his victim impact statement, he remarked, “Now...

My Mental Health Is Struggling. Can Faith And Church Really Help Me?

We are the coolest and probably the queerest pastors you will ever meet, and we stand by this claim. Being part of , which is the world's largest progressive queer church, we believe that Church or faith or religion has a significant impact on our mental makeup and its health. Surveys in the LGBTQ+ community are almost unanimous. Church and religious faith have been the historic heart of creating LGBTQ+ hate, anxiety and therefore challenges to mental health. Religious belief and participation in a faith community play a positive role in supporting mental health for many individuals. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, religion can have a positive impact on mental health by providing people with something to believe in, a sense of structure, and a group of people to connect with. But where is that for queer people? At Sunshine Cathedral and even the , we are trying to offer people across the world a sense of belonging and security by telling them that they are not alone. But, we must understand that mental health is complex, and individual experiences vary. Hence, we encourage anyone struggling with mental health to seek a holistic approach, including professional help from mental health professionals, therapists, or counselors. Faith and religion, in conjunction with other resources, will promote overall well-being. If you or your loved ones are in need of help, visit sunshinecathedral.org/care to get it.

Federal Judge Says DeSantis Spread Misinformation To Get Anti Trans Restrictions

A federal judge who heard a lawsuit challenging Florida 's restrictions on gender-affirming care says Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis repeatedly spread false information to push through policies that would limit access to various transition-related treatments. U.S. Judge Robert Hinkle, of the Northern District of Florida, made the remarks during the final day of a trial, finding that Florida health authorities and DeSantis initially cast the state's law barring minors from accessing gender-affirming treatments as a necessary step to prevent children from being mutilated. But, Hinkle said, the law actually prevents transgender individuals from accessing any health care treatments that affirm their gender identity. The restrictions on gender-affirming care were first enacted in March after the Florida Board of Medicine and Florida Board of Osteopathic Medicine approved rules to limit the accessibility of hormonal and surgical interventions. DeSantis subsequently signed a bill in May...
