Miami-Dade Corrections officials are disputing reports that transgender influencer and YouTuber Nikita Dragun was held in the men’s jail unit following her arrest in Miami Beach.
Although Dragun's arrest affidavit noted" appears as a female but would like to be recognized as a male."
Her publicist told numerous news outlets that it was"disturbing and dangerous" for Dragun to be held in the men's unit in jail."Inmate Dragun never made it beyond the booking process prior to release; therefore, she was never placed in a men’s unit," corrections spokesperson Juan Diasgranados said in a statement."All inmates undergoing our intake process remain in an open seating area, in the presence of correctional staff.
