Kelly Mayhew, a 34-year-old employee of the Black Entertainment Television (“BET”) network, died of “systemic silicone emboli due to cosmetic silicone injections of buttocks,” according to a Medical Examiner spokeswoman. She struggled to breathe almost immediately after receiving the injections and was rushed to the hospital but did not survive.
The victim’s “physician” reportedly fled the scene on the day of the incident.
