Description

Sasha Garden, a 27 year old transgender woman, was found dead with signs of trauma on July 19.


"Garden’s death follows a disturbing wave of violence that has shaken the LGBTQ community in Florida, claiming the lives of three transgender women in Jacksonville in the past six months alone. Officials at the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office have continued to misgender victims in police reports and public statements -- even after repeated calls from local activists and community members to respect the identities of their loved ones."
