Imagine you’ve been arrested in Seattle.
Your fate is resting in the hands of your public defender, and when you are hauled into court, you are greeted by a 70-year-old man with huge fake boobs, painted-on make-up, and skin-tight black leather pants and boots.
According to Seattle journalist Jonathan Choe, public defender Stephanie Mueller is “representing one of the far-left activists charged with disrupting a council meeting in February.”
“This is Seattle,” Choe wrote on X. “What’s the big deal?”
Due to popular demand, I’m posting the extended cut of my interview with public defender Stephanie Mueller. The transgender attorney is representing one of the far-left activists charged with disrupting a council meeting in February.
Otherwise, this is Seattle. What’s the big… https://t.co/rYo4nrj9Wu pic.twitter.com/fuTP4qObvu— Jonathan Choe (@choeshow) April 5, 2024
Well, for starters, according to one user on X, Mueller’s outrageous costume violates even the most basic of courtroom dress codes.
“In what world is it acceptable for a public defender to show up to a court proceeding dressed like that??” asked one shocked user. “Even our jury duty dress code wouldn’t allow any of that.”
“I live in a completely different universe than these people,” the user stated. “More thankful everyday for my life in Nowhere, TN.”

Choe is full of “love” for the “sassy” lawyer.
“Like I said, Seattle is the gift that keeps on giving,” he wrote. “Mueller is sassy for sure. Is a seasoned attorney. Nothing but love and respect.”

The Daily Mail reports that Mueller “was a model of efficiency in the courtroom and was filmed agreeing a date for a future hearing for Boardman – May 6 – with no-one around her batting an eyelid at her garb.”
“Pure f**king insanity,” declared one X user.
Pure fucking insanity

“My client has pled not guilty and she is not guilty, how about that?” Mueller told a journalist.
According to the Daily Mail, that’s “the kind of seasoned response that could only have come from her two decades’ experience working as a representative for underprivileged clients accused of misdemeanors in the small town of Vashon.”
“Where and when does this madness stop?” asked one X user. “Only a few years ago therapists would say these folks have issues that needed addressing – today? They [are] cheering them on.”

The Daily Mail continues:
Despite her outlandish appearance, Mueller insists she has been ‘treated with complete respect and great acceptance’ since transitioning in 2012 and her over-the-top appearance has no bearing on her cases.
‘It’s really important to know that since I transitioned, full-time, more than 4 years ago, I have been treated with complete respect and great acceptance both personally and professionally,’ she wrote on a 2016 GoFundMe page raising money for a new car.
‘Everywhere I go, people are friendly and polite. In the courtroom, the issue has never once arisen – as should be the case.’
Really? Should that really “be the case”?
According to many X users. that isn’t “the case” at all.
This is black face but for gender.

“C’mon, this is ridiculous. Those nips and implants are beyond gross, and inappropriate,” one user wrote. “This person is supposed to be an officer of the court, but shows up looking like a tramp.”
