The Buzz | US: Jury weighs murder charge in buttocks-enhancement death

A jury is weighing murder charges in the death of a 20-year-old London dancer who got silicone injections at a hotel to enhance her buttocks.
Defendant Padge-Victoria Windslowe says she performed thousands of the procedures despite a lack of formal medical training. The 45-year-old Windslowe describes herself as a former madam and hip-hop performer.
Authorities say she fled after a botched injection killed the dancer in 2011. Two other women have testified that they became seriously ill after the low-grade silicone spread to their lungs.
Windslowe says women paid thousands of dollars for her work and called her “the Michelangelo of buttocks injections.”
The jury got the third-degree murder case last week and is set to resume deliberations today (Macau time).
There have been several similar deaths around the USA.
