Prominent non-binary Mexican activist killed with blade, says prosecutor

This is the best summary I could come up with:

MEXICO CITY, Nov 14 (Reuters) - Prominent non-binary Mexican activist Ociel Baena was slain with a razor blade, a local prosecutor said on Tuesday, in a suspected murder that has led to an outpouring of grief from members of the country's LGBT community.

Candlelight vigils took place in multiple cities on Monday evening, including in the capital, where many shed tears and speakers lashed out at the insults and acts of violence that remain a common occurrence for many gay, transgender and non-binary Mexicans.

Some participants waved rainbow fans, which Baena often brought to public events, including one last year where Mexico's foreign minister unveiled the country's first non-binary passport.

Baena and partner Dorian Daniel were found dead in the early hours of Monday morning at their home in central Aguascalientes state.

Aguascalientes chief prosecutor Jesus Figueroa told Radio Formula that Baena was found with 20 lacerations from a shaving razor, including one to the neck that was likely fatal.

Juan Pablo Delgado, head of local human rights group Amicus, highlighted Baena's "transcendent" leadership and constant presence at public marches.

You deserved better.
Baena was found with 20 lacerations from a shaving razor, including one to the neck that was likely fatal.
You deserved so much, but from all the fear and hate, we have this. We have the only thing those emotions can produce, violence.
Rest in power.
