This all started in July.
This has not been reported on the news, until August.
It is November. We demand an update.
Please spread awareness. Every little thing counts.
Here is a link to the instagram page for this story, run by Erycka’s mother.
We must not let another person’s life be swept under the rug. She is our trans sister.
