'Pumping Party' Defendant Sentenced

Man Gets Maximum Prison Time

POSTED: 4:20 a.m. EDT July 31, 2003 UPDATED: 4:29 a.m. EDT July 31, 2003

BROWARD COUNTY, Fla. -- A man accused of illegally injecting a woman with silicone before her death was sentenced Wednesday.

Donnie Hendrix (pictured left) was given the maximum sentence of five years for operating without a license. He was given "time served" for a culpable negligence conviction.

Hendrix's co-defendant Mark Hawkins has a hearing for a new trial next week. The men were accused of causing the death of Vera Lawrence by injecting her buttocks with a large amount of industrial silicone at a "pumping party."

Hawkins' attorney is requesting a new trial after because he said it was learned that a nurse on the jury panel was giving medical information to the panel.

As a side note, a Fort Lauderdale detective was in court today to inform the judge that Hendrix is a cooperating witness in a case against Kevin Hoffman. The detective asked the judge to take that into account when sentencing Hendrix.

Now THAT is a booty!

I missed again. 12,000cc = 12litres, not 24.

Brings the total back to a much more reasonable 12pounds per cheek!

Baby got back!

Now THAT is a booty!

JLo???

LOL

12,000 cc = 3.17007 US gallon

3gallons x 8pounds per gallon = 24pounds of silicone.

Just how big a butt did she want???

My guess is somewhere between J-Lo and Hillary!

[MineralMan]

Big bottom
Big bottom,
Talk about your bum-cakes,
My gal's got 'em.

Now THAT is a booty!

It's practically a zipcode!

[not_apathetic_anymore]

12,000 cc in each butt cheek? 24 liters?!? That's gotta be a typo

even if it's just 12000cc's - That's 6 2-liter soda bottles. Completely irresponsible in so many ways.

"12,000 cc's of industrial strength silicone "

works out to about 3.17 gallons * 8 lbs/gal for water = 25 lbs, roughly.

HOLY CRAP, musta used a 3 horsepower pump, not a syringe!

[Tijeras_Slim]

Even if it was only 1200 cc per side, that's hanging a Harley motor off each cheek!

Whenever I think our culture has sunk as low as it can go, something like this comes along.

Can we extradite them to Saudi Arabia ?

The pair is alleged to have injected 12,000 cc's of industrial strength silicone into each of Lawrence's buttocks.

Holy jeesh! Twenty-four liters of silicone? No wonder the poor woman checked out.

"Honey, do these jeans make my butt look fat?"

"No, dear, it's the 24 liters of silicone."

[Charles Henrickson]

"Does this insane amount of industrial strength silicone make my butt look big?"

[Redcloak]

It says 12,000 cc each; 12 liters per cheek or 24 liters total. That's roughly a 7 gallon booty!

So if the attorney thinks that a nurse shouldn't be using knowledge she has to make a decision...why did he accept her on the jury? Or was it an excuse to set up an appeal if he lost?

[MEGoody]

That's a picture of a man??????

[george wythe]

Is silicone the main ingredient in most of those clear caulking guns we can buy at Home Depot?

Do these freaks inject this clear plastic straight into their skin?

I feel sorry for this person dying, but I have a hard time leaving her off the hook. She should have known better than buying some silicone and injecting the poison directly into her skin.

"Donnie Hendricks, who prefers to use the name "Viva,"

Poor fella. He's ugly as a man, and even uglier as a woman.

[Calvin Locke]

...two men, one who looks like a woman,...

Thanks for rectifying the photo with the lead "A man accused ..."
