At a New Jersey prison that Governor Phil Murphy already wants to close, it is now confirmed that two female prisoners at the Edna Mahan Correctional Facility are pregnant and reportedly impregnated by a transgender inmate, as first reported by NJ Advance Media.

As part of a prior settlement, a policy was put in effect whereby prisoners were able to be housed according to their declared gender identity.
