The male-to-female transsexual sent to jail after a client's botched cosmetic procedure ended in death was arrested again this morning. Flagler County cops and Florida Department of Health raided the quiet, two-story home of Donnie Hendrix at 8 a.m. They collared her for operating medicine without a license. She's accused of charging $400 to $600 for silicone injections, the same procedure that caused the 2001 death of a 53-year-old Miramar secretary.

   

This past January, New Times got to know Donnie Hendrix well. We ran a story about her life, the bizarre crime, and the still-popular bootleg surgery among transgendered women in South Florida. We spent a day driving around, drinking tea, and sitting by the ocean with Donnie in her sleepy beach town. So, we have to say, this one shocked us.

Donnie worked as a computer programmer and during the New Times interview kept getting calls from her boss. She'd answer a few questions about how to troubleshoot and then get back to talking. From the looks of her spacious, well-groomed home, she made good money. It seemed she would have no reason to go back to pumping trannies. When she talked about past back-alley injections, she scrunched up her face and shunned the dangerous procedure.

Also, neighbors told New Times nobody visited Donnie. They described her as a loner who rarely left the house. So the idea she was running a cosmetic surgery business out of her pad doesn't make much sense.

But things can change in half a year. Cops say they received a CrimeStoppers tip four months ago and have since been staking out her home. She's now in jail with no bond and couldn't be reached for comment. More on this as it develops.
