A transgender killer smirked at her victim's relatives and refused to apologize because her gender identity made her 'vulnerable', as she was sentenced to 22 years behind bars.
Moses Jacob Lopez, 30, brutally stabbed cab driver Reese McDowell Lawhon to death in his car in April 2023 with bladed brass knuckles after suffering a mental health episode while on a night out partying in Portland.
Lawhon had picked her up after a 911 operator suggested she call a cab home. Lopez senselessly stabbed him in the chest without provocation.
At her sentencing on Wednesday, Lopez callously justified the murder by blaming a lack of mental health support and a system she saw as failing her.
'I refuse to apologize for the lack of help I so desperately needed and called and asked for from 911 services,' Lopez said, reports The Oregonian.
She also moaned that her gender identity meant that she felt 'targeted,' and vulnerable to attack the paper reported.
On the night of Lawhon killing, Lopez had been out partying in downtown Portland, but suffered a mental health breakdown and called 911 for a ride home.
The 911 operator instead suggested she call a cab and pay for a ride home.
After calling Radio Cab, static on the taxi dispatcher's line led them to enter the wrong address.
'I ended up in a very scary part of town where I was genuinely afraid,' Lopez said at her sentencing, claiming her gender identity leaves her often feeling targeted.
Surveillance footage from inside the cab showed the trip was almost entirely silent, until Lawhon realized the mistake and tried to turn around under a highway overpass.
At that moment, Lopez lunged forward and stabbed Lawhon in the neck 'completely out of the blue', detectives said.

So it’s actually a mentally ill “HE”, correct? These articles make it difficult to know, sometimes.
Sounds like some loving attention needs to be paid to the DA.
Incidentally How far away is a reasonable range to have a good chance of hitting someone -first shot- with a well sighted in McMillan .338 Lapua or 7mm Remington Magnum. And I wonder what the line of sight distance is between concealment and where the prisoners are brought to the courthouse by the jail transfer. I’m sure these questions have occurred to the relatives of the murdered cabbie.
They’ll work fine; I got plenty of the piano wire.
Actually, the family is lucky, in that this evil person will not be under the care and protection of the state. Means he will be eligible to die of lead poisoning.
“It is a mental illness.”
That’s a cop-out. They’re evil.
He is criminally insane and after he serves his sentence, he needs to be civilly confined to a locked facility and kept there until he dies.
They need “Right to Kill” laws, since their valuable identity gives them the right to kill.
I agree she had lack of help. The system needs to recognize and treat mental illness.
This comers to mine...
I wanted that horse because I didn’t have one!
Duh! Not anyones problem but yours!
You can’t mainstream crazy.
Thanks for nothing Jimmah…
They built a flyway from the jail area to the courtroom in my piddly little Oregon county. Three floors up, no exposure. I was struck by how nearly identical this courtroom was to ours (right down to the sad-sack female prosecuting attorney ). Same decorator. I suppose.
Someday the fact that these people are mentally ill“
It was not many years ago they were diagnosed and treated as such. Every institution has been corrupted including mental heath.
I read 22 years in prison. How is that not in State custody?
So many transgenders are murderers.
So, was the killer a DNA (XY) or a DNA (XX)?
Our local news FB page pulled their post of a similar incident when people started asking the same question.
You can’t expect a girl to look her best in jail. Her FB photos show a progressive descent from faggotry to trans-whatever.
Execute IT immediately with extreme prejudice.
Morons.
What note is that?
This “disease” is almost universally encouraged by the media and other branches of the Deep State. He is not a “she.” Anyone who refers to a male as a female is either bowing to social pressure or is confused. The extent of confusion in. this and other areas means that we are doomed.
