82-Year-Old Threatens Legal Action Following YMCA Transgender Incident
Community Member Stands Her Ground Amidst Locker Room Controversy
An 82-year-old woman, ousted from a Washington state YMCA pool for protesting a transgender individual’s presence in the women’s locker room, is now fighting for her right to swim again. A letter leaked to The Daily Wire reveals her demand for reinstatement and justice.
The Incident That Sparked Outrage
Julie Jaman, standing with the Center for American Liberty, seeks an apology and reentry into Port Townsend’s Mountain View Pool. Her expulsion in July 2022, following her objections to a male in the female facilities, sparked widespread debate about First Amendment rights and due process.
“I was showering when I noticed a man in a women’s swimsuit eyeing young girls changing. I had to act,” Jaman expressed. “My subsequent treatment felt like persecution; as if it were the 17th century, I’d be facing a witch trial. I wish to clear my name in a town I’ve contributed to for over 40 years.”
The letter details how the subsequent fallout included defamatory claims that smeared her reputation.
A Tarnished Reputation and Demands for Vindication
In what’s described as a “smear campaign”, Jaman alleges both the city and YMCA inflicted emotional distress by casting her falsely in a community she’s long been part of.
Jaman’s complaint, triggered by a male voice amid the women’s lockers, led to her discovery of a biological male, later identified as Clementine Adams, observing young girls. Adams’ retort to Jaman’s confrontation? “None of your business.”
Labeled as ‘discriminatory’, Jaman faced accusations from pool employees due to Adams’ transgender identity. Believing a crime might be at play, Jaman acted, involving the police to investigate her claims and the YMCA’s counterclaims.
The Center for American Liberty highlights the city and YMCA’s bias in this contentious affair, urging a factual investigation over knee-jerk judgment.
The Price of Peace
The DailyWire+ invites readers to understand the dispute through their app, as Jaman’s legal team demands a reset: revoke the ban, apologize, and compensate $350,000 for the turmoil caused.
The city and YMCA face a potential lawsuit if they don’t resolve matters by March 27. As the letter summaries, Jaman yearns to resume her routine at the pool, advocate for safety in private spaces, and reclaim the life she once knew.
The situation underscores a pivotal moment for Port Townsend, one where constitutional rights and community safety are put to the test. The outcome will either heal or divide, as a long-standing resident awaits her fate.
