The Huffington Post, and other news media, has reported that a woman claiming to be a doctor painfully injected another woman's body with cement, to give her the curves she wanted for a nightclub job, has since been arrested.
The victim was in dire need to find a low-cost solution for enhancing her physique, when a friend suggest she let O.R.M. inject her bottom with cement, mineral oil and a sealant normally used to repair flat tires.
The suspect, O.R.M., is identified by police as a person that was born a man but identifies as a woman, and, as she has allegedly performed the same surgery on herself, she presents with a swollen buttocks.
O.R.M., 30, was arrested after being able to hide from police detection for one year. She has been charged with serious bodily injury and practicing medicine without a license, and has since been released from jail on bond.
An attorney for O.R.M. has yet to be identified.
B.B., a Miami Gardens Police Sgt., said that O.R.M. had been relocating from one house to another for a year moving "like a ghost" to keep from being found. One officer, whose route to work every day passed one of the homes, located her black Mercedes parked in front one day and was soon able to make an arrest.
Due to medical privacy laws the victim's name has not been released.
Starting in May the victim allegedly paid O.R.M. $700 for the injections. The injections were made through a tube into several sites around her buttocks.
When the pain from the toxic injections grew too intense, O.R.M. allegedly told her patient, "Oh don't worry, you'll be fine. We just keep injecting you with the stuff and it all works itself out."
B.B. said that the victim, though experiencing increasing pain, was fearful to come forward. Twice she entered Florida hospitals to seek relief but left before she could bring herself to tell doctors what had been done to her.
At this point the victim was suffering with severe abdominal pains and flu-like symptoms. It was finally her mother that convinced her to seek care in a hospital on the west coast of Florida.
It was on that third trip that physicians were able to get the details from the victim. Alarmed, they contacted the Department of Health.
B.B. said, "The doctors knew no licensed physician in his right mind would ever do this."
During the victim's recovery she has been unable to work – due to the pain – and has an increasing number of medical bills.
B.B. is concerned that there may be other, equally embarrassed patients of O.R.M.'s that are trying to deal with their own painful side effects. He said, "(O.R.M.) was readily introduced to our victim as someone who could help improve her shape, so we believe (she's) done this to other people."
