SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- It's been 10 days since Moses "Teish" Cannon was shot to death, apparently targeted for being transgender.

On Monday, Cannon's death brought the state's human rights commissioner to Syracuse to meet with local transgender groups and speak out against what they consider a hate crime.

"We agreed to work collaboratively to take really reasonable action that's going to begin to focus attention on the steps that need to be undertaken," said Commissioner Galen Kirkland.
