Trans person filmed in bathroom is convicted of beating ex-wife before taking her name

Trans Person Filmed in Bathroom Convicted of Assaulting Ex-Wife

A transgender individual at the center of a viral gym bathroom controversy in Los Angeles had previously been convicted in Ohio for assaulting their then-wife while living as a man, before later adopting her first name.

Incident in Beverly Hills Gym

Alexis Black recently clashed with women at a Beverly Hills gym, including singer-songwriter Tish Hyman, who accused Black of inappropriate behavior and harassment in the women’s locker room.

Background and Conviction

Formerly known as Grant Freeman, Black pleaded guilty in 2022 to a violent assault on his spouse, Alexis Freeman. The attack caused multiple injuries, including a compound fracture of the jaw.

“Kyle Grant Freeman caused serious physical harm to the victim. The victim suffered a compound fractured mandible, which resulted in her needing surgery,” stated Hamilton County court documents.

Black was sentenced to one year in prison, receiving credit for time already served. Records show prior convictions for domestic violence and drug trafficking, as well as charges such as resisting arrest.

Recent Reactions

Following the Beverly Hills encounter, Black spoke publicly after Tish Hyman said she had been removed from the gym for confronting someone “with male genitalia” in the women’s locker room.
