Back in November, we brought you the story of Oneal Ron Morris (right), an unlicensed doctor arrested for giving trans women back-alley surgical procedures.
“The Duchess,” as Morris, 30, was known, would inject her clients with a mixture of cement, mineral oil and tire sealant to give them shapelier hips and thighs.
Morris’ operation was based out of her home base in South Florida, but it now seems she had victims from as far away as Indiana. While at least 20 women have come forward, the full number of people Morris operated on isn’t known.
Rajee Narinesingh, a victim from Hollywood, FL, spoke with the Miami Herald:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“[She] made me into a monster,” she said of her 2005 facial procedure from Morris. “There was a sisterhood of trust. She was part of the transgender community herself… There was a feeling that she won’t do anything bad, she knows what she is doing.”
That feeling was amplified by the fact that Morris injected herself with the toxic mixture, as well.
Narinesingh (left) told CBS4 in Miami that the need to “match your outside with your inside becomes so dire that you’re willing to roll the dice and take your chances.”
Morris told Brown to relax. “This is my profession, don’t worry,’’ she allegedly told the victims, according to the arrest affidavit.The victim saw a tube of Super Glue and a red soft pack lunch bag. Out of the top of the bag was a black hose. She also saw a syringe.
Morris told her not to look, so she just laid down. The injections were so painful she asked Morris to stop before she received all of them, promising to pay the full price anyway. After each injection, the victim said she saw Morris take a piece of gauze and squeeze Super Glue on it. She then glued it to the injection site.
Within hours, she became very sick. She ended up at a hospital in Tampa, where doctors eventually diagnosed her with multiple abscesses and a staph infection. She underwent several surgeries, including blood transfusions and was hospitalized for over a month. The doctors took samples that showed the substance injected into her backside mirrored the ingredients in a Pennzoil tire-repair product called “Fix-a-Flat.’’
Sadly Morris isn’t the only butcher to prey on trans women desperate enough to seek out black-market procedures. On the flip side, though, studies show that not being able to transition can have devastating consequences.
So what’s the solution?

I worked many Years for Macy’s and was not aware of a policie against transfestie.However Ias an Macys emloyee would not alauw any man in a ladys dressing room it is against Macys policie and also would disrespect the privacie from my female customers.I was very independent as Emloyee and made my desision on my own as long I handeled Macys policies and my customers with respect.Why did the Employee not call the manager and let him discuss this problem with the customer Let’s face it! It was poor customer service and at the End Macys lost (maybe) a good emloyee and a very good customer.And I think there should never ever be any problems with color genter or religion because we are all humans with a heart and feelings
