We Got It Wrong | NewNowNext: A transgender man died last month after suffering a massive blow to the head from a lead pipe. Kenneth Bostick, 59, was discovered unconscious by police on April 25, just blocks from the Chelsea homeless shelter he’d been staying at since March.
Bostick was taken to Bellevue hospital but succumbed to his injuries.
His death marks the tenth murder of a trans person of color so far this year.
Medics didn’t initially suspect foul play, but nearby surveillance video showed a man standing over Bostick’s body. A suspect, 26-year-old Joseph Griffin, has been arrested in conjunction with the attack.
Griffin is currently being held on $25,000 bail.
