These are just the ones reported and in many cases trans woman = "man in a dress" as far as the authorities and media go. From the reports:
Over 60% of reported murders are by current or former intimate partners
Most murders happened at close range and often targeted the genitalia of the victim
Brazil - hotbed of Shemale porn is the trans murder capital of the world.
Given the small number of trans women in the world this is sobering.

Ya, and my favorite is when the press and/or the authorities blame the victum for "deceiving" her attacker.
That's why I'm a gun packin' TV
