SHE GOT AWAY WITH MURDER

A back-alley Queens butt doctor who admitted to doling out a deadly silicone injection to a Maryland woman was sentenced to one year in prison — including time already served — on Thursday as the victim’s heartbroken relatives blasted the sweetheart deal.
“She got away with murder," Latrice Mayhew, mom of victim Kelly Mayhew, said bitterly after Donna Francis’ sentencing in Queens Supreme Court.


Francis, who ran off to England after the fatal operation, won the cushy sentence in August after a lengthy extradition battle. It was also agreed that she would finish her sentence in Suffolk County after a British judge heard horror stories about Rikers Island.
Kelly Mayhew and her mom traveled from Baltimore to Queens in May 2015 to meet Francis, a former hairdresser with no medical training. Francis had set up a clinic inside a Far Rockaway apartment and injected Mayhew’s backside with $1,600 worth of a clear liquid silicone gel that she had bought on eBay.
When Mayhew began having trouble breathing, her mother gave her CPR and begged Francis to call 911. Instead, Francis grabbed her keys and took off in an SUV. She left the U.S. for her childhood home in suburban London the next day.


Mayhew suffered a cardiac arrest and died at St. John’s Episcopal Hospital in Far Rockaway, authorities said. The city medical examiner later determined that the silicone fatally clogged an artery.
Francis, 39, wearing a black suit and gold stiletto heels, broke down in sobs Thursday as she apologized to Mayhew’s family.

“I’m sorry for everything," she cried. "It was never my intention to hurt anyone ... it was never my intention. I’m sorry for all the years this has been going on, I’m sorry for everything.”



Francis pleaded guilty in October to criminally negligent homicide. With time served, she is expected to be released from prison next April, authorities said.
The sweetheart deal enraged Mayhew’s family.
“Donna Francis is alive, breathing, kicking and screaming," Mayhew’s brother Richard Lane said at the sentencing Thursday. “With all her strength she fought not to be here to face her crimes. (She) vigorously refused to take any responsibility until forced.”


“I will never see Kelly again, never talk to Kelly again or never touch (her) ever again ... and that’s forever," he said as his mother wiped away tears in the gallery.

Queens Assistant District Attorney George DeLuca-Farrugia called Francis “nothing short of a coward.”
“She has been a coward the past three years when she refused to return to the states," DeLuca-Farrugia said. "It pains me and this office that we can’t get more than one year

Shareholders laud NAICOM’s cancellation of insurance recapitalisation

5:51 AM
Shareholders on Monday commended the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) over the cancellation of the Tier Based Solvency Capital recapitalisation.
The shareholders under the aegis of the Independent Shareholders Association of Nigeria (ISAN) said the cancellation of the recapitalisation bid by NAICOM was a welcome development and a sign of respect for the rule of law.
Mr Moses Igbrude, ISAN Publicity Secretary, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos that it was a welcome development that the regulator toed the path of law.
NAN reports that NAICOM on Nov. 23 announced the cancellation of the Tier Based Solvency Capital policy for the underwriting sector with immediate effect.
The commission gave this notice in a circular to all insurance companies on ‘Withdrawal of circular on Tier Based Solvency Capital policy for insurance companies in Nigeria,’ signed by the Director, NAICOM, Mr Agboola Pius, on Friday.
It will be recalled that recently, NAICOM announced a raise in the minimum capital base for life, non-life and composite insurance companies seeking licences to underwrite all risks in Nigeria.
The companies required from N2 billion, N3 billion and N5 billion to N6 billion, N9 billion and N15 billon, respectively under the tier-based minimum solvency capital structure.
It later announced an Oct. 1, 2018 deadline, which was not accepted by stakeholders, pushing them to take a legal action against the commission.
Igbrude said the shareholders were not against insurance recapitalisation but rather not comfortable with the short period of time NAICOM gave them for the exercise.
He said the shareholders were worried by the way and manner NAICOM changed the recapitalisation deadline from January 2019 to October 2018.
“The way they suddenly brought the day backward from January 2019 to October 2018 raised our suspicious to whether some cabal in the sector wants to corner insurance business through such a sudden and drastic action,” Igbrude said.
He said shareholders appreciated NAICOM’s efforts and eagerness to strengthen the operators’ capital base.
Igbrude urged the regulator to carry all stakeholders along through proper engagement and enlightenment to ensure mutual understanding for the benefit of the industry in particular and the economy in general.
“I sincerely advise the insurance companies to make hay while the sun shines because this opportunity will not last so long.
“All the insurance companies concerned should do their best to recapitalise as soon as possible to various categories they want to operate within the sector,” Igbrude stated.
However, Mr Sola Oni, a chartered stockbroker and Chief Executive Officer, Sofunix Investment and Communications, said illiquidity nurtured by customers’ apathy had made life difficult for insurance companies.
Oni said multinational companies in the oil and gas prefered offshore underwriters to carry their risk as against local ones who were defaulting steadily in settlement of claims and finding it difficult to mobilise premium.
“The court action which prompted NAICOM to suspend its tier-based solvency policy shall eventually be on the front burner.
“There is no quick fix that can provide financial succor for our ailing insurance firms outside the wall of outright recapitalisation or through mergers and acquisition in the final analysis.“The earlier they accept the hard reality, the better,” Oni said.
