WHO REALLY WANTS PLASTIC SURGERY

Pair Accused in Woman's Death After Botched Plastic Surgery


Two Colombian nationals were arrested Sunday at Las Vegas' McCarran International Airport in connection with the death of a woman who underwent a cosmetic surgical procedure while in their care.
Ruben Dario Matallana-Galvas, 55, and Carmen Olfidia Torres-Sanchez, 47, from Medellin, Colombia, are being held without bail, the Las Vegas Sun reported.
They have both been charged with one count of murder and will face court Monday.
The dead woman—who has not been named—was dropped off by relatives at a Las Vegas address on Saturday where she was to undergo a surgical procedure.
Four hours later, the relatives returned to the address but it was abandoned and the woman could not be found.
She had been taken to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
The pair were booked on a flight to Colombia when they were apprehended at McCarran.

In this photo provided by Getty Images, Getty photographer Chris Hondros stands in front of a burning building while on assignment on Monday, April 18, 2011, in Misrata, Libya. Hondros, 41, died Wednesday, April 20, 2011 after being seriously wounded while on assignment in Misrata, Libya, according to Getty's director of photography, Pancho Bernasconi.

ABOARD THE IONIAN SPIRIT — An aid ship on Thursday ferried the bodies of two Western photojournalists out of the besieged Libyan city of Misrata after they were killed and two others working alongside them were wounded while covering battles between rebels and government forces.
British-born Tim Hetherington, the Oscar-nominated co-director of the documentary "Restrepo" about U.S. soldiers on an outpost in Afghanistan, was killed Wednesday inside the only rebel-held city in western Libya, said his U.S.-based publicist, Johanna Ramos Boyer. The city has come under weeks of relentless shelling by government troops.
Chris Hondros, a New York-based photographer for Getty Images, was also killed Wednesday. His work appeared in major magazines and newspapers around the world, and his awards include the Robert Capa Gold Medal, one of the highest prizes in war photography.
Many circumstances of the incident were unclear. A statement from Hetherington's family said he was killed by a rocket-propelled grenade.
The Washington Post reported that the journalists had gone with rebel fighters to Tripoli Street in the center of Misrata, scene of the some of the most intense recent fighting in the city.
After an ambulance rushed Hetherington and Guy Martin to a triage tent, an American photographer whose bulletproof vest was splattered with blood implored the drivers to go back for more victims, the Post reported.
Hetherington was bleeding heavily from his leg and died about 15 minutes after he reached the triage facility, while Hondos died after suffering a severe brain injury from shrapnel, the Post reported.
The two other photographers _ Martin, a Briton affiliated with the Panos photo agency, and Michael Christopher Brown _ were treated for shrapnel wounds, doctors said.
Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi's forces have intensified their weekslong assault on Libya's third-largest city, firing tank shells and rockets into residential areas, according to witnesses and human rights groups. NATO commanders have admitted their airpower is limited in being able to protect civilians in a city _ the core mission of the international air campaign.
On Thursday, the bodies of Hetherington and Hondros along with the wounded Martin and Brown were being taken to the de facto rebel capital of Benghazi aboard the Ionian Spirit, a ferry boat that had arrived in Misrata the day before carrying food and medicine and was taking out hundreds of Libyans and foreigners fleeing the city. In Benghazi, representatives from the United States and Britain were to take custody of the bodies to arrange their evacuation from Libya.

THEY DIED WHILE WORKING ON THE JOB. IT'S A SHAME BUT AT LEAST WE WERE FORTUNATE TO HAVE SEEN THEIR WORK. GOD BLESS THEIR FAMILIES.
