A woman has appeared in court charged with conducting illegal buttocks injections a year after police believe she administered similar treatment to a young UK tourist who later died.
Padge Windslowe, who calls herself the Black Madam, faces allegations of aggravated assault and deceptive practices relating to a so-called pumping party in Philadelphia.
Thames Valley University student Claudia Aderotimi died on February 7 last year following cosmetic buttock treatment in a budget hotel room.
Police believe Windslowe administered the injections, but no charges have been made as officials are still examining what substances were in the 20-year-old's body when she died.
But Windslowe, 42, will go on trial in relation to an incident over a year later when she treated an exotic dancer on February 19.
The woman told a preliminary hearing that she paid 1,000 US dollars for the treatment at a pumping party in Philadelphia.
She said Windslowe administered silicon from a water bottle as she lay on a dining table, and used glue to close four injection sites.
The dancer was in hospital for two weeks after suffering serious lung damage.
Miss Aderotimi, a Nigerian national, travelled to the States with three friends to have the silicone injections.
She began to suffer chest pains and had trouble breathing and was rushed from her hotel, the Hampton Inn in south-west Philadelphia where the treatment was carried out, to Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital in Darby.
Tasha Jamerson, director of communications, Philadelphia District Attorney's Office, said: "We're still waiting for the medical examiner to rule on the cause of death.
"They are awaiting for the Food and Drug Administration to rule on some of the substances that were found in her body."
Miss Aderotimi was said to be an aspiring hip-hop dancer who had appeared in a number of music videos.
