Houston authorities have officially charged Chester Lamar Grant, 40, with the brutal murder of British student nurse and TikTok personality Elizabeth Odunsi, also known as Tami Dollars. The incident occurred just days before she was due to graduate from her nursing program in Texas.
According to the Houston Police Department, officers responded to a welfare check at a residence on Goforth Street on April 26. After seeing blood on the rear patio and receiving no response, they entered the home and discovered Odunsi’s body on the kitchen floor with multiple stab wounds. In a nearby bedroom, they found Grant with a stab wound of his own. He was taken to hospital in critical condition before being arrested and charged.
Odunsi, 23, originally from London, had amassed over 45,000 followers on TikTok, where she shared her nursing journey under the name Tami Dollars. Her shocking death has sparked an outpouring of grief online.
A fundraiser to return her body to the UK has surpassed £65,000, with organizers asking for support to “give her the peaceful and dignified farewell she deserves.”
The case has drawn widespread attention in both the UK and US, highlighting the dangers that can exist even in shared living spaces. Grant now faces serious legal consequences as investigations continue.
