FULL TITLE: Transgender woman, 23, who was brutally beaten by a mob that shouted 'homophobic slurs' on camera is found murdered a month later
A transgender woman who was brutally beaten in April by a mob in a viral video was found shot dead on Saturday morning.
Muhlaysia Booker, 23, was found laying face down on the 7200 block of Valley Glen Drive at approximately 6.40am.
Booker was pronounced dead at the scene and Dallas Police Department said at a press conference she was the victim of 'homicidal violence'.
Police did indicate that the death was not tied to the viral incident in April. It is currently not being investigated as a hate crime, CBS DFW reports.

Booker was attacked on April 14 after an apparently minor traffic accident outside the Royal Crest Apartments Dallas, Texas.
Edward Dominic Thomas, 29, was detained on April 16 and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Further charges were pending.
The attackers allegedly used homophobic slurs during the assault - captured on video - and were 'known suspects,' according to the police. Authorities are investigating the incident to determine if it is a hate crime.

Who in their right mind would pick “Muhlaysia” for their own name?
Sounds like it might be a prostitute name, doesn’t it?
Men get angry when they believe they hired a female prostitute, then find out the she was a “he”.
I saw speculation he might have “tricked” a john who didn’t appreciate it. There were at least 2 transvestite prostitutes killed in Ft. Worth over the last few years for just that thing.
So, what was “it”? A DNA XX or XY?
“Who in their right mind would pick “Muhlaysia” for their own name?”
A man trying to be a woman
First thing I thought of was a man shouldn’t murder.
Terrible what was done to this person. The vicious barbarity should get them the death penalty. The video is so hard to watch.
Why do ‘homophobic slurs’ matter to a female impersonator?
I seem to recall an April story about this Transvestite Man.
Somebody paid, or offered to pay a couple of hoodlums $200. if they would beat this person up. He was very badly beaten last month. Must have stayed in the same area.
Sad. This young man probably had a family who cared about him at one time in his life. Better to live and let live vs trying to destroy someone for being different. If this strange person is not directly bothering you, then leave them alone. Some folks never learn how to do that.
There is more to this story. We don’t know if someone was “trying to destroy someone for being different”. Of course, that’s what the leftist media wants us to assume. Fits the narrative of innocent queers being attacked by Republicans — Trump supporters even.
I prefer not to participate in evil hoaxes, thank you very much.
“Thou shalt not kill”
That commandment includes unfortunates like the poor person that was murdered by this mob.
Well I'm not the world's most masculine man, but I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man and so is Muhlaysia.

Play stupid games...
>>Police did indicate that the death was not tied to the viral incident in April.
Then why mention the incident?
The jealous boyfriend who called the cops on the men in the Lawrence v. Texas case had a criminal charge of abuse allegd against one of those men. It was under investigation when suddendly he was murdered. The case was never solved and it certainly didn’t get covered in the world press.
rough trade. Some homosexuals enjoy the deceit and risks from such false advertising.
Horrible. Human beings should not do this to any other human being.
