Housewife Charged With Killing a Man During a Shoot For Her OnlyFans Page, and the Details of His Death are Crazy
A California housewife who operates an OnlyFans page is being charged with a work-related crime. And the details are like something out of a crime procedural show.
Michaela Brashaye Rylaarsdam reportedly wrapped her client Michael Dale in duct tape and Saran wrap, like a 'mummy,' while filming a consensual BDSM fetish video.
According to the New York Post, the 55-year-old man paid Rylaarsdam $11,000 for her services after contacting her through an escort business. Authorities said the incident took place in April 2023 when Dale asked the married woman to glue women's boots to his feet and put his head inside of a plastic bag.
Rylaarsdam, who also runs a stripper agency and OnlyFans with her husband Brandon, told cops her exchange with Dale was her first experimenting in fetish behavior, the Daily Mail reports.
Rylaarsdam was reportedly performing sex acts on Dale while he was suffocating on the floor, for eight minutes, in a disturbing video captured for her OnlyFans subscribers. She called 911 after he became unresponsive and began performing CPR on Dale. He was declared brain dead the following day after he was rushed to the hospital. Dale was removed from life support days later.The San Diego Union Tribune reviewed an affidavit that revealed Dale died of asphyxiation.
And now, the 31-year-old has been charged with second-degree murder. Dan Cohen, her attorney, said his client did not intend to kill Dale, noting that while consent is not a defense it's 'certainly a mitigating factor.'
What makes the incident complex is the stark contrast between the accusation and her fetish activity, versus her life on social media. Her Instagram account, whom she shares with her husband, is private, but boasts photos of her children and family enjoying quality time together.
The Daily Mail shared snapshots of the married couple smiling on a beach, posing with their children in front of a Christmas tree, Rylaarsdam's bathroom selfies, and a picture of her enjoying what looks like a sporting event with her husband.
The woman, who is also a mother of three, was arrested in February 2025, plead not guilty. She is being held without bond while she awaits her trial from behind bars.

Post photographer shot in the head with rubber bullet in LA anti-ICE riots — and he caught the terrifying moment on camera
Harrowing footage captured the moment California police shot a New York Post photographer in the head with a rubber bullet during Los Angeles' violent protest Sunday evening. Toby Canham, who was on assignment for The Post and standing just off the 101 Freeway at an elevated level, was filming video of the chaos between cops and rioters when a California Highway Patrol (CHP) officer suddenly turned his weapon toward him and fired from about 100 yards away. Veteran photographer Toby Canham caught the moment he was struck by a rubber bullet while covering the Los Angeles riots Sunday evening. Toby Canham for NY Post Advertisement Canham, 59, who was wearing his press pass, was struck in the forehead and quickly fell to the ground, according to the disturbing footage he captured. 'F–k, f–k, I just got shot in the head!' the dad of two can be heard screaming from behind the camera. The veteran photographer, who served in the British Army and is based out of LA, spent Monday at the hospital for whiplash and neck pain. He was left with a giant bruise on his forehead. Advertisement 'When I got whacked, to my best recollection it was just me filming with my cameras on and then I got shot,' said Canham. 'Where I was hit, I was the only person overlooking the freeway. I wasn't surrounded so I was an easy target.' Before he was hit with the rubber bullet, a flashbang initially exploded a few feet from him, causing shrapnel to kick up and leave two holes in his pants. He then saw someone to his left throw a water bottle filled with a liquid at authorities and then retreat, which led him to start recording with his camera 20 seconds before he was struck. Advertisement Canham was injured by authorities the same day an Australian news reporter was also shot with a rubber bullet while reporting live from the scene. Law enforcement has clashed with violent protesters over the last few days of unrest in response to actions taken by Immigration and Customs Enforcement against illegal migrants in the city. Thousands of anti-ICE protesters took over the major highway in downtown Los Angeles as rioters lit self-driving cars on fire Sunday in a surreal scene. While traffic was blocked on both lanes of the freeway, the crowd was eventually forced onto an exit ramp by CHP. Advertisement Canham, a dad of two, suffered a massive bruise on his forehead and whiplash. Toby Canham for NY Post While Canham was taking photos, protesters could be seen standing on the sides of the elevated platform next to the freeway while law enforcement was still on the highway and sheltered under an overpass. Rioters have thrown various items, including water bottles and rocks at law enforcement, since the violence erupted. 'It's a real shame. I completely understand being in the position where you could get injured but at the same time there was no justification for even aiming the rifle at me and pulling the trigger so I'm a bit pissed off about that to be honest,' Canham said, noting he could have lost an eye or some teeth. CHP did not immediately return an email seeking comment. LAPD said, 'There is no comment, the incident needs to be investigated.' Gov. Gavin Newsom's office also declined comment on the violence against a journalist and referred The Post to law enforcement on the ground. The Los Angeles mayor's office did not immediately return an email seeking comment. The turmoil has become so volatile that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered 700 Marines to Los Angeles to back up the 300 National Guard troops on the ground already and local authorities.

US judge dismisses actor Baldoni's lawsuit against Lively, NYT
A US judge on Monday rejected a $400 million lawsuit that actor Justin Baldoni filed against former co-star Blake Lively and The New York Times after she accused him of sexual harassment and other misbehavior. Back in December the Times reported that Lively had filed a complaint against Baldoni and producer Jamey Heath for allegedly inappropriate behavior and comments during the shooting of the movie "It Ends with Us." The complaint said Baldoni -- who also directed the film -- had spoken inappropriately about his sex life and sought to alter the film to include sex scenes that were not in the script and had not been agreed to. It also said Heath had watched Lively while she was topless, despite having been asked to turn away. It further said Baldoni waged a PR campaign to wreck Lively's reputation. A lawyer for Wayfarer, the studio behind the film, said in a statement released to the New York Times at the time that neither the studio, its executives, nor its PR team did anything to retaliate against Lively. "These claims are completely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt and rehash a narrative in the media," lawyer Bryan Freedman wrote in December. Baldoni filed suit in January against the actress, her husband Ryan Reynolds and the Times, arguing that an article the paper ran in December defamed him. On Monday, Judge Lewis Liman of the US District Court in Manhattan dismissed the lawsuit filed by Baldoni. The judge said the Times had simply reported on Lively's original legal filing alleging harassment on set and a retaliatory smear campaign, and that it had taken the trouble to seek a reaction from Baldoni to the actress's allegations. The judge also rejected allegations by Baldoni that Lively, whose Instagram account has more than 43 million followers, had tried to seize control of the film and its promotion. Baldoni accused her husband, Reynolds, of wrongly describing him as a sexual predator. In a statement carried by US media, Lively's lawyers celebrated what they called a "total victory" over Baldoni's "retaliatory lawsuit." Baldoni's lawyer did not immediately respond to an AFP request for comment. Based on a best-selling novel by the US writer Colleen Hoover, "It Ends with Us" is a romantic drama that made more than $350 million at the box office in 2024, making it one of the biggest hits of the year. gl/bdx/dw/sla

Chicago man charged with raping woman in Merrillville
A Chicago man was charged with rape from an August 2024 incident in Merrillville. Jeremy Cornell Jackson, 38, is charged with rape, a Level 3 felony. He is at large with bail set at $3,000, according to Lake County court records. On August 25, 2024, Merrillville Police were dispatched to a residence where a woman told police that 'Leante' Jackson had raped her, according to a probable cause affidavit. She had been dating him for about four months after meeting on a dating app. On Aug. 24, the woman told police that Jackson arrived at her house around 12:15 p.m., records state. The pair smoked marijuana and started kissing and cuddling; the two had not previously engaged in sexual intercourse. She asked Jackson if he had protection and he replied that he did not, court records state. While she was reaching toward her nightstand for a condom, he forced himself on her, putting his hands around her neck and choking her, and having sex with her despite her telling him to stop multiple times. The rape lasted about eight minutes, the affidavit states. Jackson then asked her, 'What are you going to do, cry about it?' Eventually, she was able to break free and Jackson replied 'I'm done,' gathering his personal items and leaving, court records state. At that point, the victim called police. She was transported to Methodist Hospital Northlake where a sexual assault exam was performed, records state. The kit was forwarded to the Indiana State Police lab, where it was analyzed and male DNA was located. The victim gave police the suspect's phone number and his Instagram username 'king jay jack,' which she had taken screenshots of, the affidavit states. She said they mainly communicated through phone and not Instagram. Police filed a preservation request for the 'kingjayjack' account on Aug. 29, court records state. On Sept. 3, the victim told police she believed that she met 'Leante' on Bumble. She described him as a 38-year-old Black man, who was between 6-foot-1 and 6-foot-2 and has a 'big belly' and dark skin with a low beard, records state. She identified Jackson in a six-person photo lineup. Police contacted Jackson on Sept. 6 and he agreed to meet with police on Sept. 12, but failed to show up for the interview without notice, the affidavit states. Police called him and were forwarded to his voice mail where they advised him to call and reschedule. Police have yet to hear back from Jackson, records state. Police were granted a search warrant to examine Jackson's cell photo records, which showed him traveling to Lake County from Benton Harbor, Michigan, on the day of the alleged rape before he was present at the victim's residence.
