For this International Women's Month, I talk about the case of January Marie Lapuz.In September 2012, January, a vibrant and beloved Filipina transwoman, was brutally stabbed in her Vancouver home. Her killer fled the scene, sparking a two-month manhunt and exposing the systemic failures that leave marginalized communities vulnerable in Canada.January’s story is one of resilience, love, and tragedy—a Filipina immigrant who found community and purpose in Canada, only to have her life cut short by violence. This episode explores her life, the investigation into her death, and the ongoing fight for justice and recognition for trans lives. Join us as we remember January, honor her legacy, and reflect on the work still needed to protect those at the intersections of discrimination.Sources used for this episode can be found <a href="https://lagimpodcast.blogspot.com/2025/03/the-case-january-marie-lapuz.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>.Support me through gifts and donations at <a href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/juzewoba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BuyMeCoffee</a>.To never miss any Lagim update, please <a href="https://mailchi.mp/eb04c282e27f/sign-up-for-the-lagim-podcast-newsletter" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">sign up to my newsletter</a>.LAGIM is on <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@lagimpodcast" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TikTok</a>, so make sure to check me out:Subscribe to <a href="https://bit.ly/3rFdWCg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LAGIM's YouTube channel</a>:Follow, rate and review LAGIM on <a href="https://apple.co/3r3XjzT" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Apple Podcasts</a> and <a href="https://spoti.fi/3qamBxl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Spotify</a>:Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/lagim-a-filipino-true-crime-podcast--5701073/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/lagim-a-filipino-true-crime-podcast--5701073/support</a>.
