Chynal Lindsey Charges have been dropped in one murder of a Dallas transgender woman and the trial has begun in another. Charges against Angelo Walker have been dropped in the 2020 Merci Mack murder in Oak Cliff.
But the trial of Ruben Alvarado, 24, has begun for the 2019 murder of Chynal Lindsey whose body was found in White Rock Lake.
Lindsey, 26, was severely beaten and choked to death. When her body was found, there was a belt wrapped around her neck. Her murder occurred within weeks of the death of Muhlaysia Booker.
The defense attorney misgendered Lindsey and continued to misgender her even after the prosecutor told jurors he would refer to her as a woman.
