| Aldophus Simmons Murdered January 21, 2008 |
Adolphus Simmons, 18, North Charleston,
SC
That Adolphus Simmons dressed like a
woman was of no consequence to his
neighbors at the Bradford Apartments in
North Charleston. To them, his shooting
death Monday night was a senseless loss of
a beloved friend. The effeminate
18-year-old charmed them with his always
jovial and sometimes flamboyant personality,
they said. Police were working on leads in
the case late Tuesday. There was no
indication that his slaying was a hate crime,
said Spencer Pryor, police public information
officer.
