"We say 'at least [22 murders in the US]' because the stories detailed in this report very likely undercount the number of transgender people who were killed in the United States this year. Although advocates, bloggers and media groups have elevated this crisis in the past several years, data collection is often incomplete or unreliable when it comes to violent and fatal crimes against transgender people. Some victims' deaths may go unreported, while others may not be identified as transgender in the media, often because authorities, journalists and/or family members refuse to acknowledge their gender identity." -- Mark Lee, "A National Epidemic: Fatal Anti-Transgender Violence In America In 2018", The Human Rights Campaign Foundation, 2018-11-19
