Members of the LGBT community came together Nov. 20 at The Church of St. Luke and The Epiphany to pay tribute to a gay teen found murdered last week in Puerto Rico. Jorge Steven Lopez Mercado, 19, was found on the side of a road in Caguas. He had been decapitated, dismembered and partially burned. Puerto Rican police arrested Juan Martinez Matos for his murder, and LGBT-rights advocates are pushing for the murder to be classified as a hate crime. Photo: Scott Drake
