It would take multiple trials for the murders of Gwen Arajuo to be brought to justice. Prejudice, bigotry, and the cry of “Trans Panic” would shield the murders for a time. But it would not be long until they would face their judgment. Was justice served? Did the punishment fit the crime? Join us as we discuss the final trial as well as the laws that have been put in place as a result of this crime.

In 2002, Gwen Aruajo was murdered by four men she considered friends during a party at their home. A rumor, a confession, and a thorough investigation would pinpoint just who had committed this murder. But a trial that only highlighted issues of obtaining justice for a transgender victim would mean that holding the murderers accountable would be far more difficult. In this episode we talk about the mistrial, the jury experience and the continued quest for justice.
