26 year old Brandi Seals was found dead in front of a SE Houston home under construction at Brandon and Red Bud Streets in the Sunnyside neighborhood early Wednesday morning at approximately 6:00 AM. One person reported hearing six gunshots before Brandi's body was discovered.
As you probably guessed, FOX 26's John Donnelly horribly botched the reporting in this story. The initial reporting was so horrible he neglected to get Brandi's age, or say in the story where her body was found.
A mere blogger found that out doing the basic 101 level reporting Donnelly failed to do.
But Donnelly sure had no trouble misgendering Brandi or shadily injecting prostitution into it .
Brandi is the 24th trans person killed in the US in 2017 . She was also the 18th Black trans person (17 trans feminine) killed in 2017 and the fourth trans person in Texas this year.
And once again in a patter that continues to infuriate and disgust me, she was under age 30.
As of yet, speaking of HPD they have no leads in finding Brandi's killer, so if you do have any information that will lead to the expeditious arrest, prosecution and incarceration of her killer, you can call Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (8477)
Two vigils are being planned. One is being organized by Dee Dee Watters at the Sunnyside location where Brandi died starting at 7 PM tonight. Another will take place at City Hall at 5 PM Friday
Rest in Power and peace Brandi. We will not rest until the person who killed you is apprehended, prosecuted and is rotting away in a TDC jail cell.
