linkAt approximately 8 a.m. on the morning of March 16, authorities discovered the lifeless body of a transgender prostitute. Family members later identified her as 54-year-old Michelle Carrasco - or "Chela," as her friends called her.
Carrrasco, her face completely disfigured, had been left in a makeshift pit, presumably by the person who at some point during the previous night brutally attacked her while she worked the road to Melipilla, waiting for clients in Santiago's Lo Espejo district.
Two weeks later, her family and friends are still trying to cope with the horrific murder. "We're doing so badly, just bad," Zujeiy Carrasco, the victim's niece, told the Valparaiso Times. "You know where she was working, right? It's just that she didn't have any other choices," she added, trying unsuccessfully to hold back the tears.
