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.

Seriously, I wish these would be reported like we do politicians (D) or (R), but with how the person was birthed, (P) or (V) ... then they can go ahead and use whatever politically correctness their editors demand, but we (the people out here trying to translate all this) would know if they were boys or girls.

What is this British thing about apologizing for murder??
And people being upset that the sociopath won’t?
I read that and thought “mental illness and/or demonic possession.”
“She also moaned that her gender identity meant that she felt ‘targeted,’ and vulnerable to attack…”
This is the official justification narrative that is now used to excuse violent aggression. Up is down.
Notice the “safe space” programs for these violent freaks. I wouldn’t be caught dead in a room full of these loose cannons.
The freak will likely play the “mental” game incessantly and be let out well before 2 years. This is Oregon after all.
Will the cab driver be posthumously charged with a “hate crime” for making the poor little “transgender” feel “threatened?”
