Speaking softly but in an unwavering voice, Theresa Gyamfi told a Common Pleas Court judge that moments after her childhood friend Claudia Aderotimi received several silicone buttock injections in a Philadelphia hotel room, the woman complained of a sudden, growing pain in her chest. "She said every time she breathes in, it hurts," Gyamfi, 22, said of her friend's reaction after the February 2011 procedure. "I could see it in her face. She was close to tears.

She held the case for trial and refused to reduce the $750,000 bail for Black Madam, a transgender gothic hip-hop artist whose real name is Padge Victoria Windslowe.

The woman known as the "Black Madam," jailed last month on charges of performing an illegal buttocks-enhancement procedure that sent a young woman to the hospital, was a step closer to release Friday after a judge cut her bail from $10 million to $750,000.

Windslowe was also ordered to stay away from the tools of her black-market trade: needles, syringes, and Krazy Glue.
