Trump denied a trans woman asylum & deported her. She was killed when she returned.


By Alex Bollinger · Tuesday, February 19, 2019

A transgender woman who failed to get asylum in the U.S. died after being attacked in El Salvador.

An organization that supports transgender people in El Salvador said that a woman who goes by Camila was reported missing at the end of January. They contacted hospitals in the area and found that she was admitted on January 31 and passed away on February 3 due to her injuries.

Last year, Camila came to the U.S. in a migrant caravan after being threatened in El Salvador.

Activists in El Salvador said that she was deported by the U.S. several months ago.

“She migrated to the U.S. because of threats that she had received, but she was deported because they didn’t believe her,” Aislinn Odaly’s, an LGBTQ activist, told the Washington Blade.

And don’t ever think otherwise. These people would love the idea that “one of those people” got killed.
