A Philadelphia judge has acquitted the killer of a trans woman of
murder charges, despite an impassioned plea by the prosecutor that
malice was behind the shooting.

At the end of a three-hour bench trial on Aug. 18, Common Pleas Judge
Jeffrey P. Minehart convicted Terron Oates of voluntary manslaughter
in the death of Alexis King.
