28 year old Victoria Carmen White of Newark was shot to death early Sunday morning on September 12 and pronounced dead at the scene at a Maplewood, NJ apartment building located at 159 Jacoby Street.
But as tragic as the violent end of Victoria's life was, she got a layer of disrespect shoveled on top of it as well.
The Maplewood Police and Essex County Prosecutor's Office initially identified her using her old name and incorrect gender pronouns.
