In the night of August 01, 2025, Trevor was attacked at 03:30 in the morning after a night out. The attacked came out of the blue and the it could be provoked, when he mentioned he was gay. Result… he woke up in the hospital, with a broken jaw, broken cheekbone, and a split lip.
You would think the police would take immediate action, get statements from witnesses, find the suspect, collect camera recordings in the area. They didn’t. Trevor had to file a complaint first! That took a few days as he was in hospital.
To protest the violence against the LHBTQ+ community, and of course the lack of action by the police, Haarlem Town Queers, LGBT Asylum Support, Dusty Foundation, COC Kennemerland, Regenboogloket, TransFem Haarlem, Queer Vibes Radio, PRIDE Haarlem, and Nachtwacht Haarlem gathered at the Nieuwe Groenmarkt.
There were various speakers representing the LHBTQ+ community and the nightlife of Haarlem. Even major Jos Wienen held a speech while wearing the chain of office to underline he was representing the city.
After the speeches the march went to location where the tragedy happened and put flowers nearby.
