Devin Diamond, 20, was found dead inside a burned car on Flite Court in New Orleans in the early morning of June 5, 2016. First responders extinguished the fire and an autopsy showed she died from blunt force trauma before the vehicle was set ablaze; authorities ruled the case a homicide and arson. Devin, a Black transgender woman also known as Goddess Diamond, had recently moved into a new apartment and was remembered by family, friends and coworkers as kind, loving and active in the LGBTQ community.

Police said she had borrowed a roommate’s car to go to a party the night she was last seen. Surveillance near the scene reportedly shows a man approaching the car before the flames began and later returning, at one point carrying a container. The New Orleans Police Department led the investigation with FBI assistance to evaluate a possible hate-crime link, but no suspect has been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced.

If anyone knew Devin, saw her that night, or has information about the vehicle or the person captured on video, please come forward.
