I've removed the reference to "rough trade" as a motive for his murder. Feferman and Feferman was quoted to this effect, but just having read that book today and since double-checking again the referenced pages, I'm certain that there is nothing at all that suggests "trade" in that work. "Trade" is the practice of an (often wealthy) homosexual man taking an (often poor) heterosexual man as a sexual partner. The Feferman's state that Montague did engage in high-risk behavior, such as cruising bars and bringing home strangers, and they state that he had been robbed once before during such an encounter, but again, there is no suggestion at all about "rough trade".
