On Jan. 22 of this year, the citizens of Abilene, Texas, were dealt a tremendous shock when they learned of the murder-suicide of a local congregate and minister.

Rev. Karen Lee Johnson of the Unity Church of Christianity (UCC), 61, had gone to visit and counsel a member of her congregation, preoperative transgender resident Renata Antoinette Monet. After her arrival in the home of Monet, Johnson was repeatedly stabbed and killed.
