Twenty-five year old Philadelphian Dino Dizdarevic was found murdered in Chester, PA on May 6th, after meeting someone he found on the gay hook-up site Grindr. But the miasma hanging over this tabloid account is not simply a cautionary tale of the dangers of hook-up sites, but rather the loss of someone who seemingly had everything going for him.

But someone chose to cut that all short: either a homophobe who preys on gay men or a self-loathing fringe member of the gay community itself. In either case it doesn't matter.
