A transgender Michigan woman who sued her ex-boyfriend for discarding her surgically removed testicles had her case tossed out by a judge who also rejected the ex’s counterclaim for being humiliated by the case.
Brianna Kingsley, 40, last year filed a small claims petition claiming her ex, William Wojciechowski, 37, retains possession of my surgically extracted testicles, preserved in (a) Mason jar, kept in (the) fridge next to the eggs.
The Pontiac resident demanded the immediate return of her human remains specimen in her handwritten affidavit, in addition to $6,500 in damages.
“We’re talking about my nuts. … I wanted them in my fridge not his, Kingsley told a court hearing. The damages were the loss of these nuts.”
Wojciechowski, meanwhile, said he’d already tossed out the testicles — and filed a? counterclaim for the same amount, claiming he’d been “humiliated” by coverage of the nutty case by “worldwide news outlets, the Detroit News reported.
But District Court Judge Jeremy Bowie denied both their claims, calling the whole matter a wash during a contentious hearing Wednesday adding that his decision cant be appealed, according to the outlet. 6 Brianna Kingsley, 40, right, a transgender Michigan woman, wanted her ex-boyfriend, William Wojciechowski, 37, left, to return her surgically removed testicles.

The judge noted how hard it was to calculate potential damages in the bizarre case.
“I can put a dollar amount on, say, if you were missing work at $16 an hour,” he said. “But as to testicles, I can’t really put a number on it.”
The judge said Kingsley had the chance to retrieve her testicles when an Oakland County sheriffs deputy accompanied her to her former beaus home in January 2023.
At the time, Kingsley had just gotten out of jail, where she spent three days and was fined $100 for violating a personal protection order he had filed against her, the Detroit News reported.
“We allow a one-time visit with a sheriff’s officer in situations like that for people to go back to get their belongings,” Bowie said. 6 A judge threw out Kingsley’s lawsuit, which sought $6,500 in damages, calling the case “a wash.” 6 William Wojciechowski’s counterclaim seeking $6,500 for “humiliation” also was thrown out.

“Ms. Kingsley failed to retrieve the testicles from the refrigerator at that time. … If they were so important to her, she had the opportunity to grab them, and she didn’t, he said during the hearing.
Wojciechowski told the judge he tossed out the testicles in July.
“They were rotting in my fridge, and it was disgusting I’ve got food in there I wanted to eat,” he said. “She didn’t keep them in a biohazard container like she was supposed to.” 6 Kingsley posted a TikTok video apparently mocking her removed testicles. Facebook / William Wojciechowski
She told him her surgery at Henry Ford Hospital in March 2022 cost $20,000, but noted that the state covered the charge because shes disabled, according to the outlet.
The state paid for that, you didn’t. You’re not going to be unjustly enriched, the judge told her. 6 She is seen holding up a bag marked as a biohazard. Facebook / William Wojciechowski
The two said they met on Facebook Community in April 2020 and moved in together in the fall of 2021 in the house Wojciechowski bought. They broke up in December 2022.
Kingsley said ?she placed her testicles in a jar and stored them in the fridge “because I deal with trauma with comedy. Shakespeare did it.”
She went to Wojciechowskis house a second time after retrieving her belongings, but he said he denied his entry because he felt she was harassing him. 6 William Wojciechowski Facebook / William Wojciechowski
Bowie said he had a right to deny her entry because she’d already been inside a month earlier.
Kingsley appeared to poke fun at her missing gonads in a TikTok video in 2022 titled ?The ?Unboxing of Dees Nutz.
In it, she opens a box and removes a bag labeled a biohazard smiling coyly as she puts her fingers to her mouth and repackages it, suggesting they were her testicles and ending with a dance.
In October 2020, Kingsley pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and was sentenced to two months in the slammer after he pulled a knife on her then-roommate, also a trans woman, on Christmas Day.
