NATIONAL ROUNDUP

In Tennessee, former Memphis police officer Bridges McRae has pled guilty to beating the late Duanna Johnson, a transgender individual, according to an Advocate.com item. By admitting his guilt before his scheduled retrial, McRae positioned himself to receive a two-year sentence instead of the 10-year sentence he would have gotten if a jury had convicted him. McRae admitted to beating Johnson in a display caught on a surveillance tape in 2008 while booking Johnson on a prostitution charge. Some time after the beating, Johnson was fatally shot outside her home; the shooter remains at large.
