Overview of the Incident in Escondido, California
Michaela Rylaarsdam, an OnlyFans model known by her alias Asshley SinCal, faces a murder charge following a fatal BDSM session. The incident took place in Escondido, California, at the home of the deceased, Michael Dale, who hired Rylaarsdam for a session priced over $11,000 in April 2023.
Details of the Fatal Session
Authorities noted that Dale appeared intoxicated upon Rylaarsdam's arrival around 6 PM. Despite his condition, the session proceeded, involving Saran Wrap and the application of women's boots. Tragically, Dale was suffocated with a combination of a plastic bag, Saran Wrap, and duct tape around his head. Contrary to some practices in BDSM which require consent, there was no evidence that Dale consented to the methods that led to his suffocation. It was reported that Rylaarsdam recorded the session, which ended fatally.
