They have been charged with murdering a client named Karissa Rajpaul.
Libby Adame and Alicia Gomez Arrested
Libby Adame and Alicia Gomez were arrested for allegedly injecting a client with the liquified silicon mix during the butt uplifting procedure. According to news sources, she died last October.
After her death, a video of Karissa Rajpul taking the selfie in the operating table surfaced on the Internet in September 2020. Reports said that it was the second of three procedures that she had to undergo to complete the butt lifting. After the third session, she died.
She was a promising adult movie star who moved to Southern California from South Africa looking for opportunities to make her career in the industry.
She recorded the video for La Tia, the woman operating on her. The LPAD Valley Bureau Homicide Detective Bob Dinlocker said that is how she used to advertise her illegal business.
The detective said that they used to transport the supplies in their private residence without any emergency. These supplied were available to them easily because they are normal emergency contingencies that people usually keep at their homes in case of any mishap.
Who Is La Tia?- Procedure and Charges She Faces
The person in the video La Tia is the one who was performing the procedure, and she, along with her daughter, has been charged with murder.
Two people were performing the operation Libby Adame and Alicia Gomez, using the name La Tia for business purposes.
Dinlocker said that there might be many victims besides Rajpaul and the police have requested them to come forward and talk to them if they have suffered from a similar situation.
The certified plastic surgeon said that these kinds of liquified silicon mix are deadly as they contain motor oil. The police said the mother-daughter duo charged $3500-$4500, whereas a certified doctor would charge $10,000- $15,000.
The surgeon added that even though they are cheap, it is not worth one’s life.
Bob also said that injecting these things would hit the bloodstream, attack the heart, the brain, and the kidney. Thus, it is illegal to perform such uncertified and medically wrong operations.
