Kieffer Sutton had been a patient in a mental health unit in Heath Lane Hospital, West Bromwich, for a year before he tried to strangle Kazeema to death.
The 37-year-old mother of three wept in court as the prosecutor listed the 46 previous times Sutton, who was born a woman but now identifies as a man, had threatened or attacked people.
Over half the incidents were nurses, such was the regularity of Sutton's attacks is that the judge locked him up for life.
Kazeema told the Express & Star: "I just could not believe what I was hearing. We had not been warned how violent the patient was. I still hear his voice laughing at me as he strangled me.
"He knew every trick in the book, he had been in the unit over a year when it is only meant to be temporary.
