A transgender woman was murdered. That was her car that was stolen by the murderer.
Officers responding to a call from neighbors found the residence’s front door unlocked and the victim’s body near a window, indicating she may have been trying to escape from her assailant.
The San Bernardino County coroner's office reported that Newburn’s body showed signs of physical trauma, but the cause of death is not yet determined.
We as gender variant are far too often abused and murdered without ever having justice served.
Please use the internet to ensure this woman's death does not fade quietly into oblivion.

10:22 PM PT: I just saw her picture. I supervised a youth group trip to Palm Springs Pride and she was one of the youths that went. Incredibly sad tonight. She was a wonderful girl and the loss is to all of us.
