Buenos Aires, Apr 12 (EFE).-The family of 21-year-old trans Argentinian man Tehuel de la Torre, who disappeared a month ago, waited Monday for news on the police search as demonstrations demanded the government take more action on the case.On Mar. 11 de la Torre went to a job interview and hasn't been seen or heard from since.(Camera: ALBERTO CARATOZZOLO)SHOT LIST: MARCH TO DEMAND THE STATE TO TAKE RESPONIBILITY FOR THE SEARCH OF TEHUEL IN BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA. SOUND BITES: MEMBER OF THE WORKERS 'SOCIALIST MOVEMENT JEANETTE CISNEROS, ONE OF THE ORGANIZERS OF THE MARCH (IN SPANISH)TRANSLATION:We have mobilized ourselves today, 32 days after the disappearance of Tehuel. Mainly we are demanding that the state put all its resources at the service of the search. To begin with, we already started on the wrong foot by arguing for five days with the police so that they could go and find him. The family was saying that he had disappeared and the state wasn't giving an answer. In this sense, it also reflects the structural violence experienced by the trans community, the exclusion from work, looking for informal jobs and knowing the risk that we run on a daily basis as young people, poor people, workers, specifically our trans companions. So that is why we are asking for the intervention of the state, denouncing the role of the security ministry that has dedicated itself to going out to do reports when it does not seek all the resources and has not been beside the family, which is who is, alongside the neighborhood, organizing the search. And in that sense also to the minister of gender and diversity who is not seeing the relevance nor making the political pressure that she could.
Hollywood loves a good con artist story, but a man who excelled at imitating powerful women may have hit a little too close to home. Newser reports the FBI has just announced the arrest of a suspect believed to be the 'Con Queen of Hollywood.' Hargobind Tahilramani would impersonate prominent women in the industry and pitch bogus projects to actors and Hollywood gig workers. In turn, they would shell out cash on the promise of being reimbursed. For instance, Gregory Mandarano was duped into traveling to Indonesia multiple times in 2015, believing he was working with a rep from the legit China Film Group. Instead, he lost about $70,000 paying for drivers, translators, and 'fixers,' which was never reimbursed. Among others, Tahilramani posed as Kathleen Kennedy of Lucasfilm, former Paramount boss Sherry Lansing, and Rupert Murdoch's ex-wife, Wendi Deng.
