Kayleigh Scott, a transgender flight attendant at United Airlines who was previously featured in a company video celebrating Trans Day of Visibility, was found dead in her Denver home in an apparent suicide.
The Denver Police Department told the Los Angeles Blade that they are still investigating, and the Denver Medical Examiner’s Office will ultimately determine the cause of death.
Scott’s social media followers notified the authorities after observing her making troubling allusions to suicide.
At 4:48 AM on March 20th, Scott posted on social media: “As I take my final breaths and exit this living earth, I would like to apologize to everyone I let down. I am so sorry I could not be better. To those that I love, I am sorry I could not be stronger. To those that gave me their everything, I am sorry my effort was not reciprocated. Please understand that me leaving is not a reflection on you, but the result of my own inability to turn myself for the better. To Ashley, Cynthia, Regine & Sophia. I am so sorry. Please remember me for the good memories we have shared, and never for my downfall. I will see you all again on the other side.
Brianna, I’m coming.”
Scott was 25-years-old.
