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.

ICE agents chase farmworkers during latest raid in California: video
Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents chased after migrants working at California farms in the latest set of raids that triggered days of protests. Footage uploaded to Instagram from a produce farm in the city of Oxnard, about 70 miles northwest from the riots in Los Angeles, shows the moment ICE agents target a man working in the misty fields Tuesday morning. The farmworker attempts to flee from the two officers, who easily chase him down and handcuff him on the ground. 4 ICE agents chased after a farmworker in Oxnard, California, on Tuesday. ABC7 4 The arrest was one of dozens taking place on Ventura County farms. ABC7 The arrest was just one of several that took place Tuesday in Ventura County with the help of the FBI, leading to protests and anxiety in Southern California. Daniel Larios — of the United Farm Workers Foundation, a nonprofit that advocates for all farm workers in the US — said the wave of arrests is not targeting violent criminals, but workers who maintain the Golden State's agriculture. 'They're just taking innocent people who are trying to build their own American Dream,' Larios told ABC 7. 'This is not law enforcement. It's a campaign of fear against people whose only 'crime' is living and working in the US.' 4 The FBI's Los Angeles office said it assisted with the arrests in Ventura County on Tuesday. FBI Los Angeles/Instagram Oxnard Mayor Luis McArthur condemned the raids as 'unjustified and harmful,' claiming the arrests have done nothing to improve public safety, only 'create chaos.' It remains unclear how many people were detained during the joint operation with ICE and the FBI's Los Angeles office, but the Farm Bureau of Ventura County — which represents local farmers, ranchers and agricultural businesses — said dozens of immigrant workers were arrested. The farmworkers' arrests triggered protests outside Oxnard City Hall, with hundreds calling for the migrants to be released and for ICE agents to exit the county. 4 Oxnard residents protested ICE's arrests and presence in Ventura County. NBC4 Oxnard Police Department Chief Jason Benites has said his department does not take part in, or assist, ICE's activity. Southern California has become the hotbed for the Trump administration's immigration raids, which kicked off five days of violent protests across Los Angeles that have pitted Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom against President Trump. The escalated violence led LA Mayor Karen Bass to implement a curfew on Tuesday night after days of riots, looting and clashes between protesters and police, which has resulted in more than 150 arrests.

DHS Official Picks Fight With Kim Kardashian After She Speaks Out Against ICE
One Department of Homeland Security official seems to think she can throw down with a woman raised by Kris Jenner. On Wednesday, Tricia McLaughlin, the DHS assistant secretary for public affairs, decided to pick a fight with Kim Kardashian after the reality TV star simply exercised her freedom of speech. Amid the ongoing anti-deportation protests in Los Angeles that were sparked by a rash of terrifying U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids, Kardashian made it clear on her Instagram story Tuesday that her values align with the demonstrators. 'When we're told that ICE exists to keep our country safe and remove violent criminals — great,' Kardashian began her statement. 'When we witness innocent, hardworking people being ripped from their families in inhumane ways, we have to speak up. We have to do what's right.' She continued, 'Growing up in LA, I've seen how deeply immigrants are woven into the fabric of this city. They are our neighbors, friends, classmates, coworkers, and family.' 'No matter where you fall politically, it's clear that our communities thrive because of the contributions of immigrants,' she wrote. The beauty mogul concluded, 'We can't turn a blind eye when fear and injustice keep people from living their lives freely and safely. There HAS to be a BETTER way.' When Kardashian's statement made its way to X, formerly Twitter, Wednesday, it seemed to really get McLaughlin's Skims in a twist. '.@KimKardashian, which one of these convicted child molesters, murderers, drug traffickers and rapists would you like to stay in the county? These are just a few of the convicted illegal criminals who have been picked up in the last 72 hours,' McLaughlin wrote on X, alongside images of a few men who have been detained by ICE in Los Angeles, per some very colorfully worded DHS press releases that include quotes from McLaughlin. Kardashian, who graduated from law school in May, has an interesting history with the Trump family. In 2018, she met with President Donald Trump during his first term to advocate for prison reform, and later claimed she helped soften his stance on crime (which, apparently, did not work). In 2023, the president's eldest daughter, Ivanka Trump, was pictured at Kardashian's birthday party, upsetting many of Kardashian's fans. The American Horror Story alum also seemed celebratory on Trump's inauguration day in January, posting a caption-less photo of first lady Melania Trump's outfit to her Instagram story that same day.
