"Last Monday, federal prosecutors in Alabama revealed that they had indicted a lawyer for allegedly making false statements under oath. Perhaps such a charge might not seem extraordinary. But the case, which targets Carl Charles, a transgender civil rights attorney, is anything but ordinary. Over three years, multiple federal judges in Alabama have used secret proceedings and strong-arm tactics to harass Charles and other lawyers who are fighting for LGBTQ rights in the South."
Tl;dr, the DOJ is pursuing bogus charges against a transmasc lawyer in Alabama.
