MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — A woman who co-owns an unlicensed post-cosmetic surgery recovery home called “Snatched N Curved” ended up snatched and cuffed by Miami-Dade deputies on Tuesday, an arrest report states. Authorities say the other owner remains at large.
According to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office, it’s not the first time Crystal Wilneshia White or co-owner Kerri Lisa Smith, both 38, have been accused of operating unlicensed post-op homes in the county.
Deputies said they first executed a search warrant at “Snatched N Curved,” located at 21480 SW 132nd Court, on March 17. They said they found eight recovering patients and two employees at the home.
They said another person who arrived with a patient claimed she was not an employee and was “visiting Crystal.”
Two days before White’s arrest, an Instagram post from the business warning of recovery homes “shutting down or facing serious legal consequences” due to “increasing regulations” proclaimed that the business is above-board.
“At Snatched N Curved, we want to be very clear: We do not operate like that, and we do not stand for that,” it states. “At the same time, we must operate legally, responsibly, and in full compliance with all regulations. We will not put our company, our team, or our families at risk.”
But deputies said “Snatched N Curved” was not, in fact, a licensed assisted living facility as required by state law.
The arrest report states that patients were paying in upwards of $300 per night, through Zelle, to Smith and Pierre to stay at the home and receive care. A review of the pair’s Zelle account showed that the two women had made $200,000, authorities said.
Investigators said Smith, also known as “Kerri Pierre,” was the “face” of the business and White is the registered director of the associated “SNG Concierge” company.
Deputies said they also snatched evidence from the garbage showing that “Snatched N Curved” was illegally dumping medical waste.
“Additionally, the defendant and co-defendant were previously arrested two separate times in 2023 for the unlicensed operation of two unlicensed post-cosmetic surgery ALFs at two different locations,” the arrest report states.
Deputies arrested White on Tuesday on six felony charges plus several misdemeanors, including organized fraud, operating an assisted living facility without a license and felony littering.
It appears a judge did not find probable cause on the organized fraud charge, ordering her released outright on that count, according to jail records. She was otherwise ordered to be held on an $8,300 bond.
White also faces a magistrate hold.
