The Matthew Shepard Story: An American Hate Crime plot

Matthew Shepard was a 21-year-old American student at the University of Wyoming. In October 1998, Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson tied him to a fence, beat him, and abandoned him because of his sexual orientation. He was found half-dead and died a few days later in the hospital. This documentary tells his story.
