A Miami report tells us of the arrest of a Donnie Hendrix. Ms. Hendrix is a male-to-female transgender woman who was arrested for practicing medicine without a license. She was injecting other would-be male-to-female transgenders with silicone for anywhere from $400.00-$600.00 per injection. Ms. Hendrix has a good job, a home and was described as a " real loner ".

Why would she risk what she has legally by doing something illegal and very dangerous ( a Miramar secratery died in 2001 following one of these so-called back alley injections )? She now faces a prison term and a stiff fine if convicted for her actions.I believe she probably did what she is accused of, and this is only my opinion, to help other transgenders going through the male-to-female transition.

perhaps, but with $400.00-$600.00 per injection she is going to have a hard time proving it was just out of good will.
