HUMANS DID THIS: Transgender woman pleads for her life. WARNING: Graphic images
HARROWING footage has emerged of a transgender woman begging for her life before beaten to death.
A gang of six men laugh and cheer as they beat 42-year-old Dandara dos Santos leaving her bloodied and bruised.
They then fling her into a wheelbarrow before taking her away to a side street where she was allegedly then murdered.
She is the latest in a long line of transgender people murdered in Latin America.
The footage was released in an effort to track down Ms Santos’ killers.
The video shows Ms Santos being dragged from her home and beaten by the men with shoes and planks of wood.
In Portuguese, the attackers taunt her with homophobic and transphobic insults. They mock her breasts and shout that they “will kill the faggot”.

Ms Santos can be seen wiping blood from her face and looking in fear at her attackers, her clothes ripped, torn and splattered with her blood. She pleads with the men to spare her.
However, the men keep abusing the woman and can be seen lifting her into a wheelbarrow before carting her away.
Fortaleza Police Inspector Damasceno said the video had helped identify six people, reported the Mirror.
“The footage was first circulated among LGBT groups which helped that process,” he said.
