A Philadelphia woman known as “the Black Madam” performed deadly buttocks-enhancing surgery on a Nigerian-born London dancer, Claudia Aderotimi, in an airport hotel room – then used Krazy Glue to close the wounds, a court was told.
A judge upheld third-degree murder charges during a preliminary hearing today against the quack USA doctor, Padge Gordon, who is also known as Padge Windslowe, 40.
The ruling comes after a friend of Aderotimi, an aspiring dancer, testified today that she and the 20-year-old victim came to Philadelphia last year and had their buttocks enlarged.
Aderotimi’s friend, Theresa Gyamfi , said the ‘Black Madam’ gave them silicone injections in their hotel room but then fled when Aderotimi went into respiratory distress.
A doctor testified that the industrial-grade, not medical grade, silicone went to Aderotimi’s blood, liver, lungs and brain.
She was rushed to a Delaware County hospital in an ambulance, but died within hours of a pulmonary embolism, according to the doctor.
Aderotimi’s friends said Aderotimi believed a ‘bigger Donk’ would help her dream to appear in more music videos.
Talent scout Tee Ali, who met the Thames Valley University student when she filmed a video, told The Sun: “The problem was she didn’t have no butt, and she wanted a butt.
“She went to audition for one video shoot wearing fake Donk pants and she got all the attention. But when they found out it was fake she didn’t get asked back.” They have also charged Windslowe with injuring an exotic dancer who spent two weeks in the hospital after she was injected with silicone and Krazy Glue in a similar procedure.
Authorities said they knew Windslowe had injected Aderotimi, but the Delaware County medical examiner’s office was awaiting test results from the Food and Drug Administration before determining the cause of death. Philadelphia police believe she has performed at least 14 cosmetic surgeries, moving locations to avoid detection.
The authorities said Windslowe would clean the site before injecting a substance she described as silicone into the client’s buttocks. When the procedure was done, she would cover the wound with gluewas done, she would cover the wound with glue.
