Strippers Get Bum Treatment

Kimberly Smedley traveled extensively and injected silicone into the buttocks of her clients, a vast majority of them were exotic dancers.  There were just a few small problems with the plan.  She's not a doctor.  She's not a nurse, she's not licensed to inject people with anything.  And then there's this little bit of horror from The Smoking Gun:

Smedley faces a maximum five-year prison term when sentenced in mid-July. A plea agreement indicates that federal prosecutors will seek a $250,000 fine, in addition to about $8000 in restitution (that Smedley has agreed to pay).

Pictured above, Smedley is not a licensed medical practitioner. She also falsely represented to customers that the silicone she injected (which was stored in a plastic water jug) was medical grade. Instead, prosecutors disclosed, she used a substance intended for “metal or plastic lubrication, as an additive for paint and coatings, and furniture or automotive polishes.”

Food and Drug Administration agents determined that Smedley ordered “over 4920 pounds” of the substance “from one manufacturer alone” since 2003.

A water jug.  That may haunt my dreams for quite a while.  Here's more. She used Super Glue and cotton balls to keep it from leaking back out.  A dancer became very sick after a "treatment" and led to an investigation.  It's hard to tell at this point how much trouble Smedley  went through to pose as a medical professional.  Were the women aware that this was an "alternative" treatment?  Or did they think she was a legitimate professional who stayed in hotel rooms with water jugs of silicone?  Were women knowingly risking their lives for some extra booty?  Please say it ain't so.
