A transgender sex worker found strangled last week near Interstate 280 in Potrero Hill was identified Thursday as a 27-year-old Nicaraguan immigrant.
Ruby Ordenana, also known as Ruby Rodriguez, was last seen in the Tenderloin the day before the slaying, said Alexandra Byerly, a project coordinator for EL-LA, a local nonprofit group working with the transgender community.
Ordenana was found naked and strangled after 5 a.m. on March 16 at Cesar Chavez and Indiana streets. The medical examiner's office has established her identity and is trying to locate her next of kin.
But the local community is holding a vigil in Ordenana's honor tonight.
"She was fighting a lot of battles,'' Byerly said. "She was fighting drug addiction, immigration status. There were a lot of issues going on around her.''

What are the odds that he/she paid for the transgender operation? My guess is that the California taxpayers footed the bill.
Who, what, when, where. The least the writer of this story could have done is explained which direction he/she was transgendered in, so we could guess whether she was murdered by an angry john or an angry gay.

Hmm. Also from the story "a memorial altar will be placed at Cesar Chavez and Indiana streets."
An altar dedicated to whom? The Unknown God? Quetzlcoatl?

"She was an exceptional woman who was intent on improving her life,'' D'Elia said in a statement.
May God please rest this person's soul.
Hooking, however, was not the path to take on improving his life, not to mention changing gender.
What is in the water out in SF?
Flame away!
