An African-American transgender woman has been killed in Philadelphia, less than two days after another African-American transgender woman was found dead in a motel room in San Antonio, Texas. Maya Young was pronounced dead early Sunday after being repeatedly stabbed. Less than 48 hours earlier, Veronica Banks Cano was found dead in a bathtub, fully clothed. The cause of her death remains unknown. Last year, more than 20 transgender women were murdered, the highest number on record.
