    Weathers initially claimed he was acting in self-defense and his gun went off by mistake. He said Stough got in his vehicle and demanded money. Stough died from a gunshot wound to the left underarm.

    The prosecutor’s office alleged that Weathers knew the victim and the crime took place in an area known to be frequented by sex workers.

      It’s often a safe assumption that unless evidence says otherwise a man murdering a trans woman he doesn’t know is in some way using her for sex before killing her
