Transgender sex offender Richard Cox is back in court as a Virginia Court of Appeals ruling revived the loitering charges and rejected the way Circuit Court Judge Daniel T. Lopez previously dismissed them. Now Cox is asking Lopez to recuse himself from the case.

Cox, a biological male who identifies as a woman, is facing a slew of charges in Arlington County for entering female locker rooms at local schools and recreation centers. Witnesses claim Cox, who still has a penis, would walk around naked for hours in front of young girls.
