Maybe I'm missing context here, but the latest Gay Panic defense was used in 2015 and the defendant lost, For Trans Panic the latest in that page was 2014 and the defendant ended up getting a 12 year sentence because they hit him with a hate crime charge.


It looks like a bunch of the states have already or are in the process of banning panics as a legal defense?
