The Killing of Jennifer Laude
Joseph Scott Pemberton killed Jennifer Laude, a 26-year-old Filipina trans woman, on October 11, 2014.
On December 1, 2015, the Olongapo Regional Trial Court found Pemberton guilty of homicide, citing mitigating circumstances including Laude not revealing her gender identity, and sentenced him to 6 to 12 years in jail.
The court ruled Pemberton that "in the heat of passion, he arm-locked the deceased, and dunked her head in the toilet."
On September 7, 2020, President Rodrigo Duterte granted an absolute pardon to Pemberton.
