A transgender Houstonian's murder last month is the latest in a series of unsolved homicides against the city's gender-variant residents.
Houston police officers found Myra Chanel Ical's badly bruised body in a vacant lot on Garrott Street near the Southwest Freeway in the Montrose neighborhood on Jan. 18. Police indicated the bruises were an obvious sign Ical, 51, had been beaten, but she tried to fight back against her assailant(s.)

48 hours. If a murder has not been solved in 48 hours, its unlikely it will be.

I dunno, I lived and I owned a business in Houston back in the 1970's . I then drove a Taxi for a friend and kept it in Montrose as I had several " Regulars " I would respond to there . I've lived in several Big cities , but none were as wide open and as lawless as Houston was which I lovingly refer to as " The Cement Swamp ". Ellen
