One of those men, who asked not to be identified, said “Stacey” was beautiful and could pass for a woman. “She was pretty, but if you didn’t know what time it was, you wouldn’t know what she was,” he said. “She was built . . . and she drew attention from men just walking down the street.”

The last line of the piece, always meant to give the most impact when talking about someone’s death: “‘Whatever she was – transvestite, man, woman – she didn’t deserve to die like that,’ one man said.” Um, how very kind of you to be so open-minded to denounce her death, even though she’s a “transvestite” or whatever. Is this for real?

At least it’s good to know GLAAD is pushing the newspaper for accurate reporting in this case and future cases, especially considering this happens most often when a violent crime is committed against a trans person. Folks have got to be held accountable. You can help make sure of that too.
