Sad, another asshole steals the life of a beautiful young woman from the world.

Rest in Peace Jennifer.

They determined that she wasn't murdered; the death was ruled not a homicide, and not related to her being transgender. There are newer articles on it where they determined the cause was drug-related. But had the community not demanded an investigation, they probably would have never determined that it wasn't a homicide (during autopsy)

Trans dying for anything other than natural causes is really shitty, though. If I had a choice, I'd live in Toronto instead of London, because I would have expected us to have a few trans murders by now, considering how conservative London is, though we have under 20 passable trans girls in london, so it's probably a lot less common for bigots to run into us than in perhaps the larger cities around the globe where the murders have been taking place. I'm just thankful that I pass well and so does my voice, so that I only have to deal with being treated like a girl as opposed to being treated like a "tranny" which is how it is here for anyone who can't pull off their identified gender, and unfortunately I see it quite a bit.

London is known for being a racist haven as well - even back in the 80's us non-whites in Toronto knew London didn't want our types around. Written earlier this year, you might appreciate this:

Toronto does have it's own suite of issues but generally, you would likely enjoy your time here. Make the move already......it's not that hard.

100% right.

Soldiers talk.
He was stationed in the Philippines and it's unlikely IMO you're going to meet a TS prostitute at a bar that caters to GIs looking for GG hookers.

The fact that his defense attorney argued this soldier thought he was going to be RAPED by a prostitute is so insane!

Part of me thinks when she asked to be paid he probably said no and that's when things got fucked up.

There are more than enough guys IMO who are more than willing to be with a TS escort, for all parties involved it's better to be up front.

Yep. She was with several of her trans friends that night. This was at a bar that was frequented by trans workers.

Supposedly, the condoms didn't contain Jennifer or Pemberton's DNA. Just leftovers from previous occupants.
