D.C. police are investigating an incident on Tuesday, Aug. 25, in which two unidentified suspects allegedly made threats to do bodily harm against Casa Ruby Executive Director Ruby Corado outside the Casa Ruby headquarters on Georgia Avenue, N.W.
In a video posted on Facebook, Corado said one or both of two women made what she believes were death threats against her and another Casa Ruby employee after Corado approached the two women as they were hurling anti-transgender and homophobic slurs at the Casa Ruby employee, who is a transgender woman.
Casa Ruby is an LGBTQ community services center with a special outreach to the transgender community and the LGBTQ Latino/Latina community.
