RIP Sanesha aka Boots from Blacktgirls murdered.

I suspect inbreeding played a role. Only a mentally challenged guy couldn't realize she was a TS after a few minutes chat. Don't ask me to elaborate.

there's no doubt that a transgendered escort is vulnerable to violence from tricks to a much greater degree than their gg counterparts.

I know a girl in Queens who keeps a stun gun by her bed just in case someone freaks out on her. It's not the perfect solution, but maybe the girl in the Bronx would be alive had she taken this precaution.

Secondly, as you may imagine I take great umbrage at

papers coverage.

I get the sense it was the New York Post as they tend to be
insensitive to gender issues.

However in all fairness, I do get the sense that the suspect
may have indeed known the true gender of the victim.

And what may actualy have transpired is that there was an
altercation related to a possible business transaction.

The facts hopefully will come out at trial.

I hope you're right & they get an enlightened jury,this guy needs to go to court & get the maximum sentence, as an example to others
who still think violence is an acceptable response to been "deceived" in cases like this.

How sad and disgusting when they use the terms he, his, and him.

Ok, I can say with fair certainty, based on the fact we have a model with the same name, who is 25 and whose ID states she is from the Bronx, that this is a girl whose modelled for us many times, called Boots.

She originally contacted me from an ad we run in Transformation Magazine and we set her up for a shoot fairly fast and have worked with her a number of times since. All I can say, is that reports from Tony was that she was a great model, a nice girl, easy to work with, highly sexed and it's a great shame that her life was ended so short.

In a macabre co-incidence, I believe that we have a DVD of her coming out within the next two weeks. I'll see what we can do to direct some of the profits from that to am appropriate charity in NYC area as a tribute to her.

If anybody does have further information, admin@grooby.com or PM me here in confidence.

A great shame...

First of all my heart goes out to those who knew her and her family.

Second, I hope as Seanchi mentioned she wasn't a Yum girl.

Third, what paper was this - and like most homophobic newspapers they apparently have never heard of the AP Stylebook - which plainly states how to report on transgender issues, including the correct use of pronouns.

Maybe NYCe can post the link to the paper and we can all send them some commetns on their reporting.

Fourth, people in NY will have to get behind this to get it prosecuted. And I hope they fry his ass. I don't know if NY has laws preventing the homophobia defense. But I hope you folks who live in NY get behind this and don't let it get buried just because she was a whore.

Sad hugs,
TS Jamie

Seahchi - our posts crossed - I am SO sorry.

This is too close to home. And this happens all too often.

Sigh,
TS Jamie :-)

PS - I think your offer to donate some of her video proceeds is exemplary.

This from the New York Daily News

So, he was a FTM, then?

I'm still confused if they're just being ignorant or it actually is the correct terminology.
