A TRANS butcher who kidnapped and sexually assaulted an 11-year-old girl has been jailed for 20 years.
Vile Andrew Miller, 53, abducted the girl while dressed as a woman and took her back to his bungalow in Gattonside, Selkirkshire where he kept her captive for 27 hours.

The girl was only saved from the monster’s clutches after he fell asleep wearing tights, female pants and a bra – and she was able to dial 999.
Miller, who was also previously known as Amy George, returned to the High Court in Edinburgh today after he pled guilty to the hideous incident in February.
The balding beast appeared in the dock wearing plain prison clothes and without any make up, nail varnish or wig.
His defence KC Victoria Dow referred to him only as Andrew Miller.
Miller was jailed for 20 years with an extended sentence of eight years.
Lord Arthurson said: “It was a uniquely appalling crime.
“The suffering of your victim and her family at your hands has been incalculable.
“The offence was frankly nauseating in its level of depravity and criminal deviance.”
Lord Arthurson told shamed Miller that is was obvious the young girl would not have got in his car had he presented as a man.
A risk assessment on Miller was also carried out that involved 18 hours of interviews with the beast.
The assessor noted that Miller wanted to ‘limit the effect on the wider trans community’ caused by his offending.
Ms Dow told the judge: “He recognises the horror of his conduct.
“He feels a considerable and enduring sense of shame.”
Judge Lord Arthurson previously told Miller: “The charges you have pleaded guilty to are abhorrent crimes of the utmost depravity.
“It is the realisation of every parent’s worst nightmare.”
The court previously heard how the butcher took the girl to his home, where he locked her in his bedroom before sexually abusing her for more than a day.
On May 18 he plead guilty to horrendous offences of abduction, sexual assault, possession of indecent images of children and intentionally causing a child under the age of 13 to look at a sexual image.
The beast had offered the girl a lift home while dressed as a woman, but instead drove her to his house where he kept her prisoner in the roof space of his home.
The terrified child later told cops that she had been unable to get a bus home and so started to walk when she was approached “by a lady in a car” who offered to give her a lift.
She told officers she had accepted the offer and got into the Jaguar car because she was cold and believed the “lady” to be non-threatening.
The girl feared she would never escape and gave up asking Miller to let her go in case his depravity escalated.
She luckily managed to escape the fiend’s room while he was asleep and she called 999 on his landline.
Police arrived within minutes and described how the child was “shaken and crying”.
Miller was still sleeping when he was arrested.
The court also heard how it was only by a “complete fortune” that the child was able to escape Miller’s clutches.
She deliberately knocked a glass of water off a table and then turned on a light to see if he would wake up.
The court was told that the girl’s “fear and distress was palpable” in the call and her relief at hearing the police arrive at the house was obvious.
Officers found Miller still sleeping and wearing a bra, silicone breasts, female pants and tights.
Prosecutor Lorraine Glancy KC previously told the court: “The bedroom in which the child was detained for most of the time she was within the house had a lock on the outside of the door.
“A room had been created within the attic space at the property in which was situated a homemade bed. This room could only be accessed through a hall cupboard and it too had a lock on the outside of the door.
“The child complied with the accused’s demands as she didn’t want to make him ‘mad’ – at one point he stated that next time “it” would be “worse.” As such, she stopped asking to go home.
“The accused stated to the child that he intended to keep her for a week but on another occasion, he told her that he was not going to let her leave as she was his ‘new family’.”
Miller’s £500,000 villa has been lying empty since he was taken into custody.
The Jaguar coupé he took her in was previously spotted parked in the deserted property’s driveway, alongside a Range Rover Sport.
The front of the pad is covered with ivy and moss while rubbish is piled up in the garden.
Included in the debris lying in the garden are piles of wood discarded in several places.
