Butler, 44, who lists a Pahokee address, was arrested back in January on charges of unlicensed practice of health care causing serious bodily harm after he injected silicone into at least two patients' buttocks at a motel room, according to a Palm Beach Sheriff's Office arrest report.

The first alleged victim, a woman, told detectives in December that she received injections from Butler at the El Patio Motel four times between September and October, the report said.  More
