Transgender woman who was attacked in April found dead on Dallas street - Alma Alvarado-Cabrera

A woman's assault was caught on Video on April and has currently been found dead in a Dallas street. Officers arrived at the scene and found the body faced down in the 7200 block of Valley Glen Drive around 6:40 am in a Saturday. The woman wasn't carrying an ID and couldn't be identified right away until Sunday afternoon when a medical examiner identified the woman as Muylaysia Booker.  Booker has been assaulted by a group of men who physically beat her while she was on the ground and used homophobic slurs .There has only been one man arrested, Mr.Edward Thomas. Police is still searching for the people that were responsible for the attack.

This was published on May 20,2019 by CNN news and written by Sheena Jones. This relates to history due to the LGBTQ+ rights in the US. This really shocked me because it happened here in Dallas and I'm glad I came across this. There's so much hate in this world and it's so upsetting. This was written to inform others about this case and that this happens around the world everyday.  We should use our voice to speak up for the ones that can't.
