Justice is served. As Miss B noted in one of her earlier posts, examples need to be made out of these types of people; you can't get away scott-free with murdering someone because of their gender. Hopefully this will be a stepping stone in the prosecution of people who act out in violence against transsexuals.

I agree TheAngryPostman, and I'm disgusted by what happened, but your right justice has been served.

At least a life sentence for this scum in the US means life, not as in my country, where the mandatory 'life' for this crime might mean a 15 year non parole period. Poor Angie.

"justice" would be Angie reuniting with her family. So justice cannot be served.

This is, however, a monumental case. Over the past 37 years and over 1000 trans* women in the US alone murdered. This is the first time there has been a conviction for 1st degree murder. This is the first time that the "Trans Panic"* defense has failed.

* The use of the "understandable" shock/horror/revulsion upon discovery of the trans status of an intimate/potentially intimate partner to mitigate and justify murder.

It is important that it has been recognised as a hate crime.

I was glad to here that this murderer was convicted. I think he should've been given the death peanalty, but am glad to see him get nothing less than life. It almost gives me hope in our justice system.

Bionca sain that over 1,000 transwomen have been murdered in the last 37 years. But many, many more hve been beaten and abused. Too many times the authorities either look the other way or they say the victim deserved what they got.

Hopefully, now, crimes against transwomen will be taken seriously by the authorities.

Yep.
At the end of the day, a murdering piece of shit is a murdering piece of shit.

As has been said so many times before in this forum, "the world just isn't ready for transgendered persons"... there's still too many small-minded bigots and cave-men in the world... I thought natural selection was supposed to kill them off over time?!
