Sex offender who raped care worker wants moved to women’s prison before release
21.01.2023 - 07:51 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A sex offender who abducted and raped his care worker is demanding to be known as a woman named Claire as he prepares for freedom.
Officers at HMP Edinburgh were stunned when Albert Caballero, 50, bald and reputed to have “a crazed look in his eyes”, demanded lipstick and eye make-up and gave himself the new name. Having served half his sentence, Caballero is eligible to apply to the Parole Board for Scotland to be released back into the community.
Insiders at Edinburgh’s Saughton Prison say Caballero only recently changed his name to Claire and is telling fellow cons he will be transferred to a women’s prison before release. Caballero’s case comes amid a row over new “self-ID” gender recognition laws, passed by the SNP/Green Government and blocked by the UK government, which make it easier for trans people to change their legal sex.
A senior staff source at the prison said Caballero’s behaviour had a chilling effect on other inmates. The source said: “There’s something about him that calls to mind Silence of the Lambs. He has mad, staring eyes and sometimes they just seem to go right through you.”
The source added: “There has been talk in the jail about the prospect of him seeking a move to be among women but, given his offence, I don’t see how anyone would risk it, even the most vociferous person in favour of self-ID.”
While release is automatic at half-sentence for those serving less than four years, long-term prisoners like Caballero can apply for freedom at half-sentence. Under laws passed in 2016, some offenders can be held until six months before the end of their sentence, if the Parole Board for Scotland believes they are not safe to release.
