DeLee Sentenced

Dwight DeLee, the convicted killer of Lateisha Green was sentenced today to spend the next 25 years of his life in prison.

DeLee was convicted of manslaughter July 17 and unfortunately escaped the more serious charge of murder. He is only the second person in the Unites States to be found guilty of a hate crime that involved the death of a transgender victim.

TLDEF is covering the sentencing, and as more info becomes available I'll post it.
