Summary

The 1993 Rape And Murder Of Transgender Man Brandon Teena Along With Friends Lisa Lambert And Phillip DeVine Perpetrated By John Lotter And Tom Nissen [Part 3 of 6]

In recognition of Pride Month 2022, we are taking a trip to the state of Nebraska to tell the tragic life story of a 21 year old transgender man named Brandon Teena. Brandon became a household name when his story was told in the 1999 Academy Award winning film "Boys Don't Cry". We are remembering Brandon and the impact his life and legacy had on the transgender community in the United States and around the world.
