She was standing up and waving her arms in like a worship kind of a stance.

The person that I was with, that I was getting a ride home with, he kind of pointed her out to me.

Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
She had this glow and this look about her. And... Whatever it was, you just almost, you get drawn into her energy.

Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
She dropped an E. The guy who gave us a ride home literally was enchanted with her. You just like, he was just hanging on every word.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
She was telling us how bad her circumstances were, how horrible her living conditions were.

Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
I had a three-bedroom condo on Lenox Road, and I thought, you know, well, I'm there by myself. She's a church woman. goer, member, why wouldn't I just let her move in? So I just felt very sorry for her. And I just said, oh, well, you can come and stay with me.

Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
I really never even asked her to pay rent because I didn't think it was a permanent thing.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
It happened really quickly.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
We didn't ever really get in depth about what how she lived before she came to Atlanta.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
When I would ask her about her kids... or something about her past, she would always change the subject.

She kept asking me to go into business with her and then kept talking about key man insurance.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker

She was always talking about how she's owed all this money.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
I left my money or my money hasn't shown up and I thought it was going to be on my card or just something, always something. She kept asking me for money. I wouldn't give it to her, but she was becoming such a pain.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
It was like she was speaking in tongues or something. I just kept feeling something was off.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
One day I just had this feeling came over me to just look in her room.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
And that's when I discovered all of the crazy crap under her bed.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
She was hoarding food under there. Like, she would get food out of the kitchen, but she'd put it under her bed. Like, somebody was going to take it from her or something. She had all these little notes. She would have all these little weird sayings, how she's going to get money and how God is bringing her money. Just floods of money, windfalls of money, all kind of money scribbles.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
They were all little torn pieces of paper. And these were just stacked like under her bed. It was just like a little trash heap.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker

The passport name wasn't her name.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
I was just pissed. This woman has wormed her way into my house, eating up my food, living under my roof, living under a nice roof behind you. And she's a liar.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
It was literally this fax that came over of Glenna's article. And then it said at the top, call me.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
And when I called her, her first words were, well, you might want to sit down.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
She told me about the three husbands, the friend that mysteriously died. She would tell men that She was pregnant and then she wasn't pregnant. You know, she really wasn't pregnant. And how she used her looks to get what she wanted.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
It was like, what? Like, this is a church lady. Like, what are you talking about? And I told her, you know, she's been at my house. She goes to this church. It's like, oh, she doesn't have a church bone in her body.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
And at this time, she was in the shower.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
So I went in to the kitchen and got a butcher knife.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
I just decided before I confront her, I need people to come here. Like, I need people at least to be on the way. I went back to my room. I called my brother and his friend. He was with a friend. I said, get over here now. I called the police. And all this was, I shut my door. I was whispering in my room, please get here. I don't know if I have a murderer in my house.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
I just said, who are you? And she said, what do you mean? What do you mean? You know who I am.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
That is something I'll never forget. She went from this sweet, angelic kind of a face to this demon-looking face. Like, it was the weirdest and craziest, scariest thing I've ever seen.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
I pulled that knife and I said, if you take one more step towards me, I will drop you where you stand.

Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
Once she understood that I knew the whole story, the game was up. I said, you might want to get some clothes on because we have company coming. You're going to be going to jail today.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
I wouldn't let her out of my sight.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
Who was a cucumber? And that's when I knew I had been scammed. Like, she was not, you could just tell she'd been down this road before.

Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
The female cop looked at me and says, well, you know, according to Georgia law, she's getting mail here. You're going to have to go through the courts to evict her.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
I looked at her and I said, oh, well, she can stay if she wants to. And I just kept staring her down. And she says, no, I think I'll be leaving. I said, good idea, good answer.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
The one story she told over and over again, is how you had to believe in manifestation because she would say that I just went to the airport and manifested a ticket and was able to travel where I needed to go and just show up because God would take care of me and somebody put the right person in my path to give me money to buy my ticket. So I guess that's what she did when she left my place.
The Binge Cases: Baby Broker
Fatal Beauty | 4. There's Something About Camille
He said, you need to be grateful that you found this out because I have no doubt that had she kept at you to convince you to get insurance, you wouldn't be here.
