LGBT Gang Allegedly Tortures, Kills Trans Woman. Queer Activists Blame Straight ‘Hate’

No motive has been released by the police in the alleged torture and murder of Sam Nordquist, a trans-identifying woman killed in New York in early February. There is, however, sufficient evidence to confirm the alleged murder was not a hate crime.

Despite this, media reports insist on forcing that narrative, as LGBT activists demand it and Democrat leaders validate it. The facts of the case are deeply disturbing, and the obsession with manufacturing an anti-trans hate crime story is making it worse.

Police say Sam Nordquist was tortured to death from December 2024 to Feb. 2, 2025, when she died from abuse. An indictment accuses seven people of being involved in her kidnapping, torture, and death. Nordquist had traveled from Minnesota to New York to visit her online girlfriend in September, then decided to stay. What happened between then and her death is still unknown, although police say she knew everyone involved, including two children forced to participate in the crime.

The details of her torture and death are each too difficult to imagine, let alone as a series of relentless horrors. According to police, Nordquist was starved, beaten, treated like a dog, forced to eat feces and urine, tied up, and had bleach poured on her. Her body was then abandoned in a field.

Nordquist was referred to as a man in all news reports, with many indicating she was transgender. She was immediately elevated as a victim of anti-LGBT hate and violence. OutFront Minnesota said, “We know this arrives at a time our trans communities are facing a relentless assault of harmful policy and rhetoric across our nation,” according to a post on Instagram. “We know that this landscape escalates and amplifies the individual risk of violence.” (Read more from “LGBT Gang Allegedly Tortures, Kills Trans Woman.
