"Memphis Police say 20-year-old Rodney Whitaker may have been murdered
because of his sexuality, but caution they are exploring every
possible motive.

Friends say Whitaker worked as a transgendered prostitute. He was
dressed as a woman when he was found shot to death Tuesday near Lamar
and Old Getwell. Police believe Whitaker had been working in the area
Monday night."
