Woman Charged w/ Manslaughter After Administering Illegal Butt Injections That Killed Kim Kardashian Look-Alike Model
A woman has been jailed in connection to the death of Kim Kardashian look-alike Christina Ashten Gourkani.
According to new reports, 50-year-old Vivian Gomez was arrested at the Ft. Lauderdale airport on Apr. 20 and charged with two felonies — involuntary manslaughter and practicing medicine without a license — after administering illegal butt injections to Christina Ashten Gourkani.
As previously reported, the OnlyFans model — who was reportedly obsessed with looking like TV reality star Kim Kardashian — died last month after suffering from a heart attack following the illegal procedure.
Dr. Michael K. Obeng, a board-certified plastic surgeon, spoke out against the dangerous injections during a recent interview and said:
“Most of these illegal injections are made with silicone, and silicone or any foreign substance can migrate within the body, which can lead to infection and hardness over time, deforming parts of the body.”
Obeng detailed:
“And as with any injection, it can go into your bloodstream and if it gets in the bloodstream, it can block the blood vessels and cause necrosis [or dead tissue]. So that’s a huge danger.”
Christina Ashten Gourkani’s family laid her to rest on May 4. Her loved ones also shared details about her death via the GoFundMe page that was created to help raise funds for funeral expenses.
