  • Mugshot Mania – Trio Sets Facebook Friend On Fire & Forces Her To Post Video Of Injuries Online… [VIDEO]

    Mar, 16 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Meet husband and wife Michael and Tamara Rhoades and their friend Steven Mills.

    The trio posed for the mugshots above after being arrested for assaulting and torturing a woman they met online. The married couple plus a Mills, a family friend were also aided by a 14 year old who took part in the festivities.

    They allegedly assaulted a 20-year old woman they met online , set her on fire, then forced the victim to post a video to her Facebook wall, displaying her injuries to her online friends.

    Can you imagine perusing your Facebook wall coming across something like that from one of your friends?? :shock:

    Full story…

    In a video posted on the victim’s Facebook wall, the 20-year-old can be seen with burns to her face and arms. In that video, the victim says she ‘deserved the abuse’ allegedly suffered at the hands of Michael and Tamara Rhoades, Steven Mills and an unidentified 14-year-old.

    “This letter is to let everyone know that I hurt myself and that nobody did anything to me. Everything that’s happened has been because of me. I brought this on myself,” the victim said in the video. However, police say, that confession was a coerced.

    In the background a man’s voice can be heard telling the victim what she should say next. “Now tell ‘em about what you did, why we asked you to leave,” the male voice says in the video.

    The 20-year-old victim reportedly met Michael and Tamara Rhoades online two years ago. Authorities say they lured the victim from her home in Pittsburgh to live with them in their North Philadelphia row home. The three had a consensual sexual relationship but, several weeks ago, things began to go south.

    According the police report, the suspects held the victim captive against her will, torturing her, pouring flammable liquids on her and then lighting her on fire. The victim was able to put out the flames, but was badly burned.

    Her alleged captors put her on a bus back to Pittsburgh, but not before getting a taped confessional from the victim that they’d written and directed.

    “I started causing problems with the family and I threatened the kids and Tamara’s family,” the victim said in the video.

    While serving a search warrant at the home, police say they found yet another 21-year-old victim, who also appeared to be bruised and battered.  the woman had also come to stay with the Rhoades after meeting them in an internet chat room.

    Michael Rhoades, Tamara Rhoades, and Steve Mills are each charged with attempted murder, arson, danger of death or bodily injury, and other related charges. The 14 year old juvenile is facing similar charges.

    I’m still confused about the 14 year old. What that hail??? :shock:

      Personally I am the most DANGEROUS person these bastards would want to meet. Get "strapped" before they take away your right.STAY loaded.Walk in piece knowing that God is on yo’ "side". These mofo’ could have neva’ been around to be in no jail had they done that to MY fam. Then again it’s all about association.As yo’ money say? "In God We Trust".

      WOW! What type of foolishness. Sounds like a threesome gone wrong. Someone got jealous and all hell broke loose. People are truly psycho! And to think these fools were dumb enough to tape a confession where they could be heard telling the victim what to say! F’n idiots! I hope they throw these fools under the jail!

      @Mary says; Stop it! Just stop it…. Michelle told you what she wants us to know about that topic! I love the way we can say what you just said without(hopefully) repercussions like shutting us down. Only a republican or those with those tendencies would do shyt like that. Michelle’s profile states that she’s down and pretty much understands hoodrats (which has nothing to do with Phaedra) which shows she SHOULD be down with US. Cause the HOOD all over the world IS checkin’ in. I love the fact that she HAS responded to our topic and has also stated that she may or may not post cause this IS her site. We can form whatever views we want and say it right here no matter the topic as you and I have done. She won’t get repercussions from what WE say and hopefully we will eventually get the scoop before Wendy Williams fake azz.And @Mary says; did you hear anything new? If you did please use a roundabout way of sayin’ it,but everything WE sistahs hear from haters that we can join together and dissolve,let us reveal and support our sistah Phaedra…SPEAK!

      What type of female would even talk to these creep online yet alone go to live with and have sex with them? I would not want them walking down my street for fear the air would get polluted.

      There are only two places worse than ATL and that is Philly and Detroit. Black people have lost their damned minds.
