Fake doctor boosted woman's bottom with cement and super glue
A 'fake doctor' suspected of injecting a woman's bottom with
cement, super glue and tyre sealant to give her a more 'shapely' rear has been
arrested.
Transgendered woman Oneal Ron Morris, who by his own picture
appears to have undergone the 'butt-boosting' procedure himself, is accused of
administering the potentially lethal shots to at least one victim.
The 30-year-old, who police say is a man but appears to look
like a woman, was detained in Florida Sunday for the alleged incident in May
2010.
Miami Gardens Police Department Sgt William Bamford said
Morris first met with the as-yet unidentified victim to discuss the procedure.
He said: 'They agreed on the price of $700, which was
intended for cosmetic purposes.'
But instead, police say the victim was given a series of
injections containing cement, mineral oil and Fix-A-Flat tyre inflator and
sealant.
The incision was sealed with super glue. Shortly after the
surgery was carried out, she went on to suffer 'severe complications'.
Bamford told WPLG: 'A short time later, she develops very
serious pains, abdomen, throughout her body. She knows something is wrong.'
He said the woman visited two local hospitals, before
heading to Tampa General Hospital, where she received treatment.
She had developed an infection of drug-resistant bug MRSA at
the wound and also developed pneumonia, but refused to reveal how it had
happened.
Doctors at the hospital, worried it was the work of an
unlicensed practitioner, reported the case to the Florida Department of Health.
But by the time they started to investigate, the victim had
left the area.
Morris was eventually arrested in North Lauderdale in March
2011. He has been charged with practising medicine without a license and
causing bodily harm.
The alleged incident is the latest in a long line of
instances where women have suffered complications following illegal bottom
enhancement procedures.
In February, 20-year-old British student Claudia Aderotimi,
from London, died following a cosmetic buttocks injection administered in a
Philadelphia hotel room.
In January, Whalesca Castillo, an unlicensed practitioner in
New York City, was arrested for running an illegal business out of her home
injecting women with liquid silicone in the buttocks and breasts.
And in 2010, a Miami woman, Ana Josefa Sevilla, was charged
with a similar crime after one of her clients ended up in the emergency room
with complications.
Buttock enhancement surgery is becoming popular in the U.S.,
among women who aspire to the shapely curves of Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce and
singer Nicki Minaj.
The illusion of a larger backside has become increasingly more
fashionable among young women since the rise of the 'Hip Hop Honey' phenomenon.
But experts have said undergoing unlicensed procedures is
‘like playing Russian roulette’.
