DeVera (a.k.a. Jimmy Ali McCollough) was a frequent performer in the local clubs and was known to make cash hooking on the side.
Apparently, it is not that cool to be either gay or trans in Fayetteville (you don’t say!), and the Q Notes report (which comes to us via Queerty), points out that the street where DeVera’s body, in addition to being a hooker hangout, has seen a few hate crimes lately: “Since the end of March, the Joseph St. area has witnessed an arrest for prostitution, an armed robbery and an aggravated assault wherein the victim was shot. “
Anyhow, sad. It’s hard out there for a tranny hooker, so keep an eye out for each other. And if at all possible, move to a bigger, more tranny-friendly city until the haters get schooled.
