@AP Buried in the story is the fact that the murder was committed by Amber when she was a he...Amber transitioned while in prison.

@AP Journalism at its finest. Way to make the subject not about the murder of another human, but about how the person convicted identifies.

@AP The fact that “he” murdered someone in cold blood, has nothing to do with transgender. The victim didn’t even get to have a life. JS 🤷♀️

@AP Why does gender even come into this discussion? If you kill someone you have to face the consequences regardless of sex you are or identify as. You murdered someone and get leniency because you want to be the opposite sex? There is going to be a rise in murder rate in Missouri.

@AP Just because he altered his appearance doesn't mean he should not pay for his crime.

@AP Majority of Western democracies have abolished the death penalty. It is a barbaric practice . Half of US States have abolished or placed moratorium on the death penalty.

@AP Still a dude. When his body decomposes and just bones are left, they will only identify a man. That is it.

@AP This person isn't on death row because they are transgender, AP. She murdered someone and this was the penalty. The transgender fact is inconsequential.

@AP Abolish the death penalty.
Killing people to set an example that killing people is wrong, is just dumb as fuck. The idea was to create a punishment so severe that it would deter people from committing certain crimes, which it failed to do. It's wrong to kill one another. PERIOD

@AP That person murdered another person and was found guilty beyond reasonable doubt. The death penalty itself is a barbaric punishment, but that's a different topic.
