Yarmouth Police last week arrested a transgender-identifying man, Deserai Collins, 33, after he allegedly stole a van in Portland, led law enforcement on a multi-town chase, and crashed into two police cruisers, injuring two officers.

The owner of Portland’s Pedego Electric Bike store reported the theft of one of his company vans on April 10, claiming it had been stolen overnight.
Yarmouth police officers eventually spotted the van driving north on Route 1. They attempted to stop the vehicle, but Collins allegedly refused to comply with the traffic stop instruction and instead escaped by driving the wrong way down a highway on-ramp.
Collins then allegedly stopped the van, and police attempted to arrest him again. According to the Yarmouth Police Department, Collins then intentionally slammed the van into the back of a police cruiser, almost hitting an officer.
He allegedly traveled through Freeport into Portland with police in pursuit and, once in Portland, drove into a second Yarmouth police cruiser. The driver eventually stopped the van on railroad tracks behind 58 Fore St., where he was arrested. According to police, two officers were injured during the arrest, with one injury requiring hospitalization, though the officer has since been released.
An employee of the bike shop claimed that the keys to the van had been stolen three months earlier during a break-in and suggested that the driver of the stolen vehicle and the person who originally broke into the shop could have been the same person.
Collins faces numerous charges, including reckless conduct with a dangerous weapon, theft by unauthorized use of property, and refusing to submit to arrest.
Maine news outlets uniformly referred to Collins as a woman and did not publish his mugshot, which makes it clear that he is male. The Portland Press Herald even avoided naming the suspect.
A Facebook account appearing to belong to Collins features only a few posts, some focusing on transgenderism. The account’s most recent post, from February 2022, seems to show that Collins was at that time homeless. It also accuses police officers of standing by while he was assaulted and claims that the officers were involved in some sort of nuclear experiments.
Collins also claimed that his neighbors were “implementing acts of negligence involving atomic physics later on leading to nuclear physics aswell [sic] as chemical warefare [sic] involving molecular biology and exposing me to high levels of radon and other chemicals that involved a furnace underneath my small bedroom with a L shaped pipe with the cap undone and placed up against my wood floor board.”
The Maine Wire received information suggesting that, prior to arrest, Collins may have been offering himself online as a transgender prostitute, which appeared to be somewhat supported by claims about his “confidential relations, some being political,” in his final Facebook post. His description aligns with that of an individual also named Deserai offering sexual services for hire on multiple websites, including one called “Erotic Monkey.”
Similarly, Collins’ description also aligns with a publicly available data breach notification submitted to the Maine Attorney General’s office in 2021, accusing the India Street Clinic in Portland of inadvertantly leaking his information and claiming that he was involved with the clinic to undergo testing for possible sexually transmitted diseases.
The Maine Wire was unable to entirely verify whether Collins was a transgender prostitute prior to his alleged joyride and arrest.
Eerily similar to Heath Ledger’s Joker but Collins, like so many other trannies, is a real life menace to society
He’s just teeing up his insanity defense .
Loser Loser Loser hoping to be sent to women’s prison , where he can pretend to be head dyke .
Euthanasia is my recommendation .
Now I get it. This is probably why susan’s been such a rino lately. Its her sons fault.
On a serious note, I don’t think that names should be public on data breach reports.
He’s a nut — not everyone is — and I don’t think the report should be public. Say someone hacked into something of Collins or Mills — if it wasn’t her fault, she shouldn’t have the report public.Or King or LePage — I’m being neutral here.
This is what the men who compete against girls in our public schools look like after they graduate.
If Mills had a son…
sick in the head.
what???…. there’s nothing wrong with that boys head….
Whatever else that copied document above is supposed to be, it amounts to an air-tight application to a long term mental institution. Free room and board, and lots of friends. What’s not to like.
A new edition of Cuckoo’s Nest is overdue.
Replying to poppypappa/ You know that the mental patients were the protagonists in Cuckoo’s Nest, right? You know that Ms. Ratchet and the doctors performing electrotherapy were an allegory for state enforced conformity in America in the 50s, right? You know that the novel is basically an idictment of the fascism in America at that time? You know that, right?
Fuck this article. No need to be transphobic simply for reporting on crime. No need to shame others simply for being different.
Was her crime theft or being transgender? Because the article makes it seem like it was both. Written by a pathetic man trying to make a dollar by punching down on people already being punched down.
Govenor Janet will probably appoint him as the head of the department of motor vehicles.
