"died an outcast" is a strange way of describing committing suicide less then a year after being forced to receive injections of female hormones for a entire year to the point of becoming impotent and growing breast as a alternative to prison time for the crime of being a homosexual.

Kind of like a Harriet Tubman 20$. "Don't mind what we did to you while you were alive, let us honor you now when we can just pretend that we did not treat you like shit."
