you can’t be detained indefinitely before you are convicted with a crime. it’s people like you who believe in incarceration which hurts us black folk. you want this murderer to be detained without trial but when you advocate for that you also advocate for detention of those who commit petty crimes. pretrial detention ruins lives and traps us in criminality. go read about the prison industrial compkex before you get us hurt with your colorblind imagination.

I don't think you have to agree with peoples life choices, but treating someone with disrespect or the absolutely unthinkable taking someone's life for that is obscene. You should always treat everyone with respect whether you agree with their stance or not because they are still people and people deserve that kind of respect. This guy is a monster wether the killing was because of her being Trans or just because. No one deserves to play god.
@@owenbell3804 sorry didn't mean it to be worded like that. My intent wasn't to belittle Trans people I hope you can still understand the overall sentiment and tone of the comment
Being trans is not a choice literally cultures Centuries and even millennia ago understood this from the Jewish faith to Native Americans here in North America.
My cousin is apart of this community in Detroit, she was also in the photo that was taken in this interview To think about someone harming or doing something so horrendous to my cousin because they aren’t acceptable to theirselves really upsets me.
blows my mind the amount of love flowing through this community. To go through the darkest of days yet push through to the other side and bless us with wisdom and courage. thank you.
Regardless to my personal opinion on the option of changing genders, if someone decides to do that, it is their personal choice, and I respect them as a PERSON. I have made choices others wouldn't agree with too, but that is free will. As long as they are not hurting others, they deserve to live and be respected as human beings. Peace.
What’s ironic is the fact he took her life bc he didn’t want anyone to know about them yet now everybody he knows, his city, and the US+ knows! I don’t know how a pastor of all people can not only live a double life like that but turn around and commit murder. It’s now mid 2022 but yet he’s still not gone to court. Shameful.
I rarely ever cry, but I cried when I heard Kelly's family members talking about their memories of her. It's heartbreaking to see and hear the injustices carried out by the very people we expect to uphold the highest moral standards.
This doesn't frighten me at all, but I feel as if it is LITERALLY common sense not to hook up with strangers or to provide sex work without acknowledging or preparing for the fact that you're endangering your life by doing so. The best friend changed life around quickly and got a job and a car after the murder, so I'm at a loss as how it is so "necessary" for trans to do sex work? Regardless, I don't see this as a hate crime because it's not trans exclusive. Anyone who regularly hooks up with strangers or performs sex work could become a victim. This has happened to straight men and women, gay men and women as well as transgendered people. You have to be willing to protect yourself by not putting yourself at risk if you don't want to be murdered. Otherwise, you're an easy target.
@@ChildOfYAHUUH What about police officers or soldiers... Do they deserve to be killed because they make a living from a job where their life could be in danger? If everyone thought like that then we would have no protect us. And a lot of trans people are kicked out by their family and they have to resort to doing sex work or else they will STARVE. They have no financial support and have to have their basic needs met so what should we expect to happen?
@@thegreatgoddess9149 You're reaching. Providing a service to protect and serve is in no way, shape or form similar to sex work. Besides that, police officers and soldiers are provided training and are armed in preparation to face an enemy. Sex workers voluntarily put their lives at risk. There are countless resources for them to take advantage of; those resources which cater specifically to LGBTQ besides the ones which assist the general public. There are employment agencies which work with employers and ensure that the people whom they send out for employment aren't discriminated against. Where there's a will, there's a way if a person is willing to put in the effort. There are too many opportunities for the people of the LGBTQ community for them to be using the same excuses they used 30 years ago when that type of discrimination was prominent and tolerated. These days, discrimination is taken very seriously and have detrimental consequences, so there's really no excuse for a person to be doing sex work except that it is what they choose to do for fast and easy hook ups and money. And if you're not willing to protect yourself, then you shouldn't be looking for anyone else to do what you're not willing to do for yourself. They need to stop putting themselves in situations where they can be murdered because it's a reality for any and everyone.
The way her friend was talked to in court. “What’s your real name?” Sir she said what she said. In order to testify you have to have a “real name”. 🤦🏽♀️
You do need a real name because you may end up charged with perjury. If you give a fake or nickname you can easily skip court if your testimony is found to be a lie.
@@Bruce_Gruesome She had already given her birth name... it was in the record. No reason for the defendant's lawyer to make her repeat it, calling it her "real name"; and as the judge pointed she swore under oath that Kyra was her name.
@@b3z3jm3nny I see what you are saying, but the reasons that the other lawyer gave for her not repeating her name was that it is intimidation, not that she already said it. I didn’t realize she said the legal name. But still, the court needs to know who said each statement. If you can give fake names in court then testimony doesn’t mean anything.

@Chris Jones I’m not sure the correlation between drugs and accepting that that woman was a woman and that she shouldn’t be referred to as “he”, because she is a woman, nonetheless, you should do some introspection if you find amusement in calling a woman a man.
This was so so beautiful. Thank you. Representation for trans people is a refreshing and NEEDED thing! This was a great video, super truthful and real and vulnerable and open and more videos should be made about Trans peoples' lives and stories. Thank you. Sending love to all the families and all the beautiful people impacted by our horribly misguided society's failures.
men act like getting caught with a transgender woman will put them in prison, no one cares what your doing. if you can lay with someone you can respect their existence
no they are worried they will be considered less of a man for being with somebody who has or had a penis. because anything that isnt heteronormative and patriarchal = bad, gross, etc.
I don't understand the whole transgender thing but that doesn't mean I will go out my way to disrespect them in anyway. Being able to joke, talk, and laugh is what I do understand and that is important when i meet people.
Right but some people just don't like sitting back and watching people destroy themselves from the inside out.. slowly.. I have family that went thru the army in the 70s and came out afterwards even tho he had a wife almost and loved her dearly now he regrets his entire life it hurts to watch more than just my uncle realizing how spiritually wicked they've been.. creating has turned into death and fun.. I don't even think about sex unless I'm having a baby right then I don't abuse my life anymore 3 woman sums, lust all of that death out the window now I enjoy my life more than I ever felt possible change isn't impossible it's just extremely hard when you don't want to... this is sad and we shouldn't be feeding pride to it.
@@NewLifeFromTheWayofTruth "my uncles life was ruined because his wife didn't liked he was gay which caused him to hate himself so now y'all don't get to love your gay self as well because I CARE about you 😊" Please-
It makes me sick that the same man that will share his body and be intimate with these girls / ppl, are can also take a life because they are embarrassed or they are uncomfortable with themselves and what they like!! Why?? Why do ppl care so much about how another person lives their life or care who other ppl love? Let ppl live and love however and whoever they choose. Its so sad that there is so much crime and loss of beautiful lifes
People care because none of us are on an island. As much as some people may wish it to not be the case, we are one nation, one city, one community. We are all connected, whether we like it or not. We must find a common perception and understanding of the world. Trans ideology not only uses semantics and manipulation to create double meanings of words, it also undermines the basis for which everyone understands their body and its role, biology. Radical identity politics only divide us further and prevent the social cohesion necessary for us to transcend the evils of the past.
@@JMU365 no, “radical identity politics”, or as I like to call it, the trans liberation movement, has always existed and won’t go away because you’re too much of a pissbaby to accept that their identities are valid.

@@abdur1300 I completely agree. The Timcast with Yeongmi Park really puts the reality of the world into perspective. Like Jordan Peterson says, worse can always be way worse.
OMG!! Bless Ms. Poindexter and the good people at Ruth Ellis! As a black woman/journalist/Detroit Native, these are the stories that make me keep writing! The next Viceland Producer is ON THE WAY (me) 😃
Um us people from Detroit and highland park know going up six mile on the east side of Woodward are where the pros work especially the trans girls he was over there getting tail and couldn’t live in his truth. The pastor is gay hate to say it whenever you see a man doing the most to put down a trans girl is because he’s low key doing one and wants them if it doesn’t bother your sexuality it shouldn’t be talked about but they do so it shows me you hiding your truth and want to tell your story as a sister of a 🏳️🌈 member this hits hard and we all from Detroit knows what you was really doing if you in that area.
@@animalunaris true but going to 6 mile in Detroit those particular trans women are still fully functioning so basically he’s gay he wants a man in a dress the best of both worlds in so many words I know a few of them and they still dress like boys every once in a while
I'm so sad now knowing that their has actually been a ballroom scene in my own backyard! I always connected ballroom to NYC. I lived in Detroit off and on but always "Ran Away" I've did the Stroll on Woodward. In Toledo etc. I want to look up these events and be apart of them now. Its never to late to support and be their for your community. I really hope Kelly and her family get Justice
Yeah I've noticed Kpop groups have started including Vogue elements in their music videos. It's pretty cool how it's going mainstream. Never really thought it would happen
I had no reason to expect anything else, but still I'm taken a back by how perceptive and articulate most of these women are. It must be awful to not be allowed to be yourself.
Kelly Family specifically are my neighbors Growing Up! Her Grams accepted me inside her home Her aunts and Her cousins and uncles Accepted me with open arms. They are like my family. Kelly lived in chicago for years and during that Time Her family and I built a strong bond! And I will forever remember kelly and Appreciate The Fam for always accepting me for me. ❤️❤️ We will Always keep her name ALIVE
I believe this to be a beautiful culture and people, as a hetero male I've came a long way on my spirtual journey to understand their passion and heart. They're truly free and expressive in this ballroom scene and in support of one another within their community, I can really respect that and rather you believe it or not that shit is spiritual. I love it.
As a straight woman, this story is heartbreaking for me. It's worse when we are taught to love everybody. I don't understand why it's so hard to do that. That's how I raised. Prayers that her mother can heal and justice will be served. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Watching this made me sad. My heart goes out to these women and the loved one's they lost. I really wish the world was a better place and everyone could feel safe and loved!!!
I went to high school with Adam Hollier, he was always so kind to everyone and was the epitome of servant leader even at a young age. May God bless the advocates and the people who continue to fight for equal rights of members of the LGBTQ community... we are all God's children.
these members of our community are everything, they are our soul. And how we treat them reflects on our goodness as a whole. Why is it so hard for us to love one another.
I understand the advocate's point, but, every "murder" sends a message regardless of the circumstances. Murder is the result of anger, hatred, greed, passion, fear, etc.
We, as women, need to band together to protect all of our sisters. It shouldn't matter what journey they took to womanhood. We need to be marching and fighting for them. We need to employ them, so they don't have to do several sex work. Kelly deserved a great life. No mother should lose their daughter due to hate.
Its disgusting and hurtful that trans women never get any justice 🤬😢 I love you my trans sisters and will always continue to fight and stand up for you ladies. I pray one day you ladies get the justice you deserve in life.💜💜💜
Full disclosure- I am a true woman who is white. That being said I don't care if your Trans, Gay, Lesbian or a one eyed one horned flying purple people eater. The people in this story are HUMAN BEINGS and deserve to be treated as such. You don't have to approve, accept or be a part of their lives but you should treat them with respect and dignity. They are people who have loved ones family and friends and they are not pieces of trash or disposable. They have a right to live so leave them be. The man who did this is evil and needs to pay the price for taking a life. Prayers be with her family and friends. Peace be with you all and please be careful and take care of yourselves.
I love the vogue ballroom scene and this doc was really great to watch. I hope all of the wonderful work they do for the community continues for years to come 👏👏👏😘
words cannot describe the joy this has brought me. To say the least this was amazing. May god continue to watch over all of these blessed, talented individuals. ❤ #JUSTICEFORKELLY
I still cannot get it. Sex workers are known for their great hearts. And still they encounter so much crime and hate. Even their clients are the most beautiful souls. Sounds like sexism.
This an awful tragedy but unfortunately not uncommon. I worry for my sisters and brothers who are targets for simply being who they are. Stay Strong and Stay Family....brothers protect our sisters
That man think about what he did and often...He know what he did and he knows he will pay...Sincere Condolences to her Mother, Friends and all those who love her...
As a bio woman who assisted (I am a Anästhesist) a lot of gender change operations, got because of this a much better understanding! Transgender women are beautiful normal people who just want to live, love and be happy! This violence is just sad! I am from Berlin and to see that hate in the USA is heartbreaking! I really wish people would come together for a better understanding! Rip Beautiful! 🙏❤️💕💜💜💜💖
I'm a straight man, so maybe I'm not the best qualified to speak on this... but in my opinion it's the fear of ridicule and judgment and "exposure" is why a lot of the men who get involved with trans women end up doing what they do.....at the end of the day they don't want to admit who they are and what they're attracted to for fear of what could be described as social repercussions. They don't have what it takes to handle the embarrassment. They don't have what it takes to admit who they are as a person...... it's like my mother always told me, the best way to get accepted by everyone is to first accept yourself.
@@lafireteamplx3400 first of all your comment makes no sense in reply to mine and secondly why do I have to be an idiot you must be attracted to trans people

UPDATE. Albert Weathers was sentenced to 8 years. 😢 I'm from Detroit, this is not a normal sentence for murder. The trial taking so long was normal, that happens all the time and COVID didn't help. The sentence however, it is extremely light. 😢
If there's so much "togetherness" going on, then why is there so much competitiveness and vindictiveness and most of all... deception etc., etc., etc., going on within the "community?" please explain.
God bless Kelly’s friend for testifying against that devil. We all know the truth that man was outed and he was emasculated and he murdered that woman. That must’ve took so much strength omg 😢

It helped me see some beautiful people, not beautiful trans, homosexual, etc., but beautiful families. Thank you.
I would love to do this. Open up my home to my kids who have no hope. This makes me so sad how a parent could turn on their own because of who they choose to be or choose to have sex with...I can't...this brought me to tears...I'm not even sure I can finish this. Thank God for the mothers!
This Documentary had me in tears It changed my whole perception And views How I perceive this group of people It's not one that I truly accept but who am I but who am I to judge that's God we are all children of God if we're straight or gay after seeing this documentary changed my thinking...love it love it love it ..Bravo good job.
I just find it so sad and heart breaking that these ppl get judged just for being who they are its insane I have a trans friend and before the transition folk picked on her then even after the transition folk still won't let my friend be its sad AF cuz I love her unconditionally❤ I don't think they should have to go through that

I don't think you have to agree with peoples life choices, but treating someone with disrespect or the absolutely unthinkable taking someone's life for that is obscene. You should always treat everyone with respect whether you agree with their stance or not because they are still people and people deserve that kind of respect.
This guy is a monster wether the killing was because of her being Trans or just because. No one deserves to play god.
Not everyone
Being trans isn’t a choice tho
@@owenbell3804 how isn't it. Everything that involves action is a choice.
@@owenbell3804 sorry didn't mean it to be worded like that. My intent wasn't to belittle Trans people I hope you can still understand the overall sentiment and tone of the comment
Being trans is not a choice literally cultures Centuries and even millennia ago understood this from the Jewish faith to Native Americans here in North America.
My cousin is apart of this community in Detroit, she was also in the photo that was taken in this interview
To think about someone harming or doing something so horrendous to my cousin because they aren’t acceptable to theirselves really upsets me.
blows my mind the amount of love flowing through this community. To go through the darkest of days yet push through to the other side and bless us with wisdom and courage. thank you.
Regardless to my personal opinion on the option of changing genders, if someone decides to do that, it is their personal choice, and I respect them as a PERSON. I have made choices others wouldn't agree with too, but that is free will. As long as they are not hurting others, they deserve to live and be respected as human beings. Peace.
PERIODTTT
AMEN
Watching Kelly's family talking about her even wearing the rainbow face mask, beautiful just beautiful 😢
What’s ironic is the fact he took her life bc he didn’t want anyone to know about them yet now everybody he knows, his city, and the US+ knows! I don’t know how a pastor of all people can not only live a double life like that but turn around and commit murder. It’s now mid 2022 but yet he’s still not gone to court. Shameful.
I rarely ever cry, but I cried when I heard Kelly's family members talking about their memories of her. It's heartbreaking to see and hear the injustices carried out by the very people we expect to uphold the highest moral standards.
To all those who feel the need to post negative comments . You need to LOOK at YOURSELF and ask why this frightens and disgusts you so much ?
💜❤
This doesn't frighten me at all, but I feel as if it is LITERALLY common sense not to hook up with strangers or to provide sex work without acknowledging or preparing for the fact that you're endangering your life by doing so. The best friend changed life around quickly and got a job and a car after the murder, so I'm at a loss as how it is so "necessary" for trans to do sex work? Regardless, I don't see this as a hate crime because it's not trans exclusive. Anyone who regularly hooks up with strangers or performs sex work could become a victim. This has happened to straight men and women, gay men and women as well as transgendered people. You have to be willing to protect yourself by not putting yourself at risk if you don't want to be murdered. Otherwise, you're an easy target.
@@ChildOfYAHUUH What about police officers or soldiers... Do they deserve to be killed because they make a living from a job where their life could be in danger? If everyone thought like that then we would have no protect us. And a lot of trans people are kicked out by their family and they have to resort to doing sex work or else they will STARVE. They have no financial support and have to have their basic needs met so what should we expect to happen?
@@thegreatgoddess9149 You're reaching. Providing a service to protect and serve is in no way, shape or form similar to sex work. Besides that, police officers and soldiers are provided training and are armed in preparation to face an enemy. Sex workers voluntarily put their lives at risk. There are countless resources for them to take advantage of; those resources which cater specifically to LGBTQ besides the ones which assist the general public. There are employment agencies which work with employers and ensure that the people whom they send out for employment aren't discriminated against. Where there's a will, there's a way if a person is willing to put in the effort. There are too many opportunities for the people of the LGBTQ community for them to be using the same excuses they used 30 years ago when that type of discrimination was prominent and tolerated. These days, discrimination is taken very seriously and have detrimental consequences, so there's really no excuse for a person to be doing sex work except that it is what they choose to do for fast and easy hook ups and money. And if you're not willing to protect yourself, then you shouldn't be looking for anyone else to do what you're not willing to do for yourself. They need to stop putting themselves in situations where they can be murdered because it's a reality for any and everyone.

The way her friend was talked to in court. “What’s your real name?” Sir she said what she said. In order to testify you have to have a “real name”. 🤦🏽♀️
yeah I'm so mad, who was that lawyer; I just wanna talk...
You do need a real name because you may end up charged with perjury. If you give a fake or nickname you can easily skip court if your testimony is found to be a lie.
@@Bruce_Gruesome She had already given her birth name... it was in the record. No reason for the defendant's lawyer to make her repeat it, calling it her "real name"; and as the judge pointed she swore under oath that Kyra was her name.
@@b3z3jm3nny I see what you are saying, but the reasons that the other lawyer gave for her not repeating her name was that it is intimidation, not that she already said it.
I didn’t realize she said the legal name. But still, the court needs to know who said each statement. If you can give fake names in court then testimony doesn’t mean anything.
@@b3z3jm3nny they were just making sure it was her birth name and not a nickname they do that in school too the fuck is your point?

This was a great video, super truthful and real and vulnerable and open and more videos should be made about Trans peoples' lives and stories. Thank you. Sending love to all the families and all the beautiful people impacted by our horribly misguided society's failures.
men act like getting caught with a transgender woman will put them in prison, no one cares what your doing. if you can lay with someone you can respect their existence
no they are worried they will be considered less of a man for being with somebody who has or had a penis. because anything that isnt heteronormative and patriarchal = bad, gross, etc.
also people have sex with people they dont respect all the time.
@@modestrocker1 correct,that or they're worried they'll be considered gay by everyone.

@@johnwallace8532 if you are not one of these men - nay, murderers - then why are you offended
I don't understand the whole transgender thing but that doesn't mean I will go out my way to disrespect them in anyway. Being able to joke, talk, and laugh is what I do understand and that is important when i meet people.
Right but some people just don't like sitting back and watching people destroy themselves from the inside out.. slowly.. I have family that went thru the army in the 70s and came out afterwards even tho he had a wife almost and loved her dearly now he regrets his entire life it hurts to watch more than just my uncle realizing how spiritually wicked they've been.. creating has turned into death and fun.. I don't even think about sex unless I'm having a baby right then I don't abuse my life anymore 3 woman sums, lust all of that death out the window now I enjoy my life more than I ever felt possible change isn't impossible it's just extremely hard when you don't want to... this is sad and we shouldn't be feeding pride to it.

Why?? Why do ppl care so much about how another person lives their life or care who other ppl love? Let ppl live and love however and whoever they choose.

People care because none of us are on an island. As much as some people may wish it to not be the case, we are one nation, one city, one community. We are all connected, whether we like it or not. We must find a common perception and understanding of the world. Trans ideology not only uses semantics and manipulation to create double meanings of words, it also undermines the basis for which everyone understands their body and its role, biology. Radical identity politics only divide us further and prevent the social cohesion necessary for us to transcend the evils of the past.
@@JMU365 no, “radical identity politics”, or as I like to call it, the trans liberation movement, has always existed and won’t go away because you’re too much of a pissbaby to accept that their identities are valid.

You got this sis!
Um us people from Detroit and highland park know going up six mile on the east side of Woodward are where the pros work especially the trans girls he was over there getting tail and couldn’t live in his truth. The pastor is gay hate to say it whenever you see a man doing the most to put down a trans girl is because he’s low key doing one and wants them if it doesn’t bother your sexuality it shouldn’t be talked about but they do so it shows me you hiding your truth and want to tell your story as a sister of a 🏳️🌈 member this hits hard and we all from Detroit knows what you was really doing if you in that area.
Sleeping with transwomen doesn’t make you gay though, there are rent boys available for gay men.
@@animalunaris true but going to 6 mile in Detroit those particular trans women are still fully functioning so basically he’s gay he wants a man in a dress the best of both worlds in so many words I know a few of them and they still dress like boys every once in a while

I understand the advocate's point, but, every "murder" sends a message regardless of the circumstances. Murder is the result of anger, hatred, greed, passion, fear, etc.
RIP Kelly Stough.
We, as women, need to band together to protect all of our sisters. It shouldn't matter what journey they took to womanhood. We need to be marching and fighting for them. We need to employ them, so they don't have to do several sex work. Kelly deserved a great life. No mother should lose their daughter due to hate.

Amazing interviews. Thank you to the Women who had to relive harmful moments to help others understand. 🥺🌸
Full disclosure- I am a true woman who is white. That being said I don't care if your Trans, Gay, Lesbian or a one eyed one horned flying purple people eater. The people in this story are HUMAN BEINGS and deserve to be treated as such. You don't have to approve, accept or be a part of their lives but you should treat them with respect and dignity. They are people who have loved ones family and friends and they are not pieces of trash or disposable. They have a right to live so leave them be. The man who did this is evil and needs to pay the price for taking a life. Prayers be with her family and friends. Peace be with you all and please be careful and take care of yourselves.

They don't have what it takes to handle the embarrassment. They don't have what it takes to admit who they are as a person...... it's like my mother always told me, the best way to get accepted by everyone is to first accept yourself.
