Minnesota man sentenced to 30 years for shooting death of transgender woman

A Minnesota man has been sentenced to a 30-year prison term for killing a transgender woman last year in Minneapolis.

Damarean Bible, 25, was found guilty of second-degree murder in August and sentenced Wednesday, Minnesota Public Radio News reported. Bible admitted fatally shooting 38-year-old Savannah Ryan Williams on Nov. 29.

“She was my best friend and meant everything to me,” Williams’ mother, Kim Stillday, said at the sentencing hearing. “As a person, Savannah was funny. She would light up any room she walked into.”

Prosecutor James Hannemon called the shooting “a cold-blooded, brazen killing” that was unprovoked.

“She just had the great misfortune of coming across a person who valued her life so little,” he said.

Bible spoke briefly at the hearing.

“I completely apologize,” Bible said. “I feel like I do need to sit down and do some time.”

He killed a man.

Was it in Reno, just to watch him die?

Why did you make him into a street walker?

It is extremely rare for a tranny to be randomly attacked. nearly every example I can find, or recall, and the tranny was involved with drugs and / or prostitution. Not very good professions for ones safety.

More accurate headline: “Dude with a face tat convicted for shooting a dude pretending to be a woman.”

The prosecutor said the victim "had the great misfortune of coming across a person who valued her life so little."

Actually, he didn't value his own life, and neither did his killer.

If they valued their own lives at all, neither of them would have engaged in sex acts with a stranger at a train station.

The man he killed was just pretending to be female.

I wonder if Tim Walz had any close calls like this.

While the behavior was awful on both sides, the presence of fraud means it wasn't completely unprovoked.

Less than a year between the crime and the sentencing? Unusual. Apparently, if you kill a tranny, you get fast tracked.

Doesn’t sound like the perp fought the prosecution.

Sexual fraud has consequences.

While Mr. Bible would have a right to be upset, (assuming he was actually misled), he did not have a right to kill the victim. Murder has consequences too. Unfortunately those do not include being hung by the neck until he is most assuredly dead.

In the PC poker game trans beats black man.

I agree with everything you said. Mr. Bible should be held accountable. The victim, however, contributed greatly to his own demise.

Sounds like there may have been an inopportune “Crying Game” moment, with a gun nearby unfortunately.

The dead tranny is the one of the left. The man on the right is the tranny's "partner" (not the killer).
