The #Brutal #gaybashing of #CharlieHoward and his #boyfriend #RoyOgden in 1984 brings #community together 40 years later.

As Howard begged for his life, the boys threw him off the bridge to his #death. Even #horror #writer #StephenKing #mourned the brutal #murder of Charlie Howard, which he #immortalized in his #novel “#It.”
