Amia Tyrae Berryman was a 28-year old transgender woman of color. She worked for Alliance Home Health Care. She was shot and died in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on Monday. The emphasis in the title should be placed on the Her, since local media misgendered her, as usual, along with dead-naming her.
She is the eighth known transgender woman to be murdered this year.
As of this writing we have no information about any suspects or persons of interest in this crime.
