SC man gets max for illegally injecting woman with silicone

(Ft. Lauderdale, FL) July 30, 2003 - A South Carolina man will serve the maximum sentence for the death of a woman whom he helped give silicone injections.

Donnie Hendrix, who dresses as a woman, will serve five years in prison for practicing medicine without a license. 
 
Hendrix and his partner, Mark Hawkins, are accused of giving silicone injections to Vera Lawrence, 53,  two-years-ago at a so-called "pumping party" where those injections were given. Authorities say she died from complications caused by the injections.
 
Hendrix has already served two years, while awaiting trial.
