BRANDON, Fla. (Gray News) - When deputies arrived at an apartment in Hillsborough County Tuesday night, Kaynesha Rhodes was already being restrained by someone.
Before they got there, investigators say Rhodes held two people at gunpoint, hit one with a baseball bat and bit off part of a child’s finger, the Tampa Bay Times reported.
Almost immediately after deputies took her into custody, the unthinkable happened. Suddenly, she fell ill.
They rushed her to a hospital where doctors pronounced her dead. Rhodes was just 24 years old.
Her cause of death has not been determined. The county’s medical examiner will decide if a prior medical condition led to Rhodes’ untimely death.
Authorities said the ordeal began when Rhodes showed up to an apartment she used to live in and pointed a firearm at her former roommates.
After she locked the door, investigators said she put down the gun, picked up the bat and began swinging. The bat hit one of the roommates in the head, after which a fight broke out.
During the brawl, Rhodes reportedly bit off part of a child’s finger. Deputies arrived around 11 p.m. to find her already restrained.
Had she lived, they would’ve charged her with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, aggravated assault with a firearm and false imprisonment.
I'm thinking that Jussie Smollett's doing an all black remake of "Casino", and Ms. Rhodes was trying out for the bats/cornfield scene.
Small part, but she looms large in life.
Oops. Make that "loomed".
Meth or Flakka
The question is: “What type of illicit drug was she on”?
Lucky for all involved that she didn’t team up with Florida man. Imagine the mayhem that would cause.
I am betting it is drugs. She OD’d on the way.
Better get that child rabies shots
Grand pappy told my pappy back in my day, son
A man had to answer for the wicked that he’d done
Take all the rope in Texas
Find a tall oak tree, round up all of them bad boys
Hang them high in the street
For all the people to see
Willie and Toby
I would say she was on drugs and OD’d.
Fentanyl would make a person drowsy, while crack, or meth would make them much more energetic. My guess would be crack or meth and that she suffered a respiratory failure.
Bath salts.
Makes people into flippin’ zombies.
Zombie.
On the plus side, the death of this feral, kaynesha, saves the taxpayers millions. What a nut case.
Yeah, I’m in the flakka or bath salts vote.
Being Florida, I’ll go for the former.
Are there a lot of let’s say “ood” people in FL? Seems they are in the news every day doing weird stuff.
Cleaning out the gene pool. Every little bit helps.
Best thing that could have happened.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Never bite into a child’s finger . . . you never know where that finger has been.
“With a name like “Kaynesha Rhodes,” you can guess where she lies on the hotness scale. For starters, imagine a ginormous bubble butt. “
“. . . you never know where that finger has been.”
Seriously, I hope the doctors were able to save the child’s finger. Stupid damned dopers!!
