She warns that without specific legislation, violence against LGBTQ+ individuals may not be investigated with the same urgency, pointing to troubling past cases where bias may have been overlooked or even legally justified. Attorney General Wayne Munroe disputes the need, arguing existing homicide laws cover all victims equally and that no murders he’s seen were motivated by sexual orientation. Yet D’Marco insists the data and community fears demand action, highlighting unsolved cases and recent deaths to underscore the urgency for legal protections against bias-motivated violence.
