TRENTON A man serving 40 years in state prison for the kidnap and rape of a teenage girl in Cape May County a decade ago is now suing the state prison system for not allowing him to become a woman.
According to Herald archives, James Randall Smith, 33, a former truck driver from Vineland, ambushed a 17-year-old girl and her boyfriend at knifepoint on the Ocean City Boardwalk in early morning hours of Aug. 7, 2000. Smith took the girl to a remote area of Maurice River Township where he raped her, beat her and left her for dead.
Now he wants a sex change.
In Trentons New Jersey State Prison facility, Smith is designated a special needs inmate. He claimed to be a male-to-female transgender individual who although born biologically male is psychologically and emotionally female, according to court documents.
