After hearing the verdict and fate of murderer Allen Andrade — guilty of four counts, including first-degree murder and a hate crime, for which he’ll spend life in prison without parole — the family of slain Angie Zapata delivered this emotional statement to the press.
Rest in peace, Angie Zapata. May you never be forgotten.
Angie,
Justice, now you can have peace.
This case has saddened me to no end.
I only learned about this thru the blog of a friend of mine on myspace.
Why is it that this always seems to happen to those who are looking for love?
Be it straight/gay/trans, it seems those looking for love are those who get the worst this world has to offer.
I for one, would have to say that If someone I was attracted to, turned out to have something different about them, I would embrace it, sure I might be shocked, but attack someone? I cannot even think that way, it just doesn’t make sense to me.
Sure this may be because I am still a virgin at the age of 27, and may be a bit “naive” as I have been told….
I just wish I could have met her, she sounds like she was a very beautiful woman in spirit and soul.
