Violence, On The Rise At South Florida Night Clubs


According to a recent Miami New Times article by Natalie O'Neil, 12 club patrons have been killed while leaving lounges in the past two years. The most famous of which was former Playboy playmate Paula Sladewski who was found burned and mutilated in a North Miami dumpster.

The former playmate was at Club Space for a new years celebration when she vanished. Security cameras show her leaving the club with a black male who is yet to be identified. The Sladewski had also stated in text messages that evening that her boyfriend was trying to kill her. Some how the model wound up dead.

Shows like America's Most Wanted aired a segment devoted to finding her killer, but like many other homicides plaguing Miami, it is still under investigation. This is not isloated and seems to be happening more frequently.

The reason I am posting this is to raise awareness. As Miami's downtown spreads into lower income neighborhoods and more people move into the expanding city crime seems to be on the rise. Be aware and be careful. Party responsibly and know who you are with. Always keep an eye open for suspicious behaviour.
