Helena Stone Arrested Three Times for Using the Women’s Restroom
Helena Stone, a phone repair worker who has been assigned to work in Grand Central Terminal since August 2005, said Tuesday that she has been arrested on disorderly conduct charges three times in the last six months, on Sept. 29, on Dec. 17 and on Jan. 12, for using the women’s restroom (the “wrong restroom”) at Grand Central Terminal. Helena stated one police officer referred to her as “a freak, a weirdo and the ugliest woman in the world’ and warned her that she would be arrested if she used the women’s restroom again. Helena says that, since her office has no bathroom, she now has no other option but to urinate into a cup. Metropolitan Transportation Authority spokesman Tom Kelly claims the MTA “will take whatever steps are necessary to avoid a similar situation in the future.”
