According to government evidence, Klaiber began yelling transphobic slurs at the 15-year-old victim after engaging her in conversation. He then grabbed her and stabbed her in the back. According to the AP, he only released her after he was pepper sprayed in the face by the victim’s friend.
Twenty five-year old Reginald Klaiber faces up to ten years in prison for assault with a dangerous weapon but could be sentenced up to 15 years with hate crime enhancements.
