10th transgender woman murdered in the US this year
Quote:
Last weekend, 25-year-old India Clarke posted a selfie on her Facebook page with the message: ‘Happy Saturday’ followed by four smiley faces.
Just three days later, Clarke was found dead in a neighborhood park in Tampa, Florida.
She is the 10th transgender woman to be murdered in the US this year.
Relatives tell WTSP that Clarke was studying cosmetology and began using the name India two years ago and identifying as a woman.
‘No, it did not matter to me. I didn’t care what he was,’ Clarke’s tearful mother, Thelma, said using male pronouns for her child. ‘I still love them — and he knew that. I can say he knew his mother loved him regardless.’
