The young Texas woman who organized the chaotic pool party that led to a McKinney cop resigning after he slammed a bikini-clad teen to the ground will get 15 more minutes of fame.
Tatyana Rhodes has become a model to "turn the negative attention" surrounding the encounter that sparked national outrage into a "positive jumpstart" into her new career, she announced in a statement Wednesday
"As a model, Tatyana is committed to using her exposure and fame to help bring about change in the community, as well as to show others you should never let negative events in your life keep you from pursuing your dreams," the statement said.
Rhodes — seen in the professional snapshots poolside in a tiny purple bikini — dominated airwaves this month after video surfaced of Cpl. Eric Casebolt slamming a girl to the ground, kneeling on her back, after pulling his gun on young men during a pool party.
She gave several interviews blasting the “out of control” cop for his violent behavior.
"He was just aggressive for no reason at all," she told WFAA-TV shortly after the story went viral. "It was horrible."

Tatyana Rhodes? Sounds Amish.
You know...photo one is not that bad.
what a joke
As some other black woman said - it was the black kids that ran, not the white kids —— our heroine did not seem able to comply with the cop, as she saw fit to resist and mouth off at him.
Photo #1 looks like a woman a dated.
Horrible photoshopping.
Ok, but I bet she ‘identifies’ herself as Amish!
Nah. We have better looking floozies’ in our casting agency in L.A which also specializes in rap videos. She’ll make the cut but only as an extra..
Paging Laz...your opinion is requested!!
I hope she had permission to use that pool.
Looking at the pictures though, there has been some serious, serious Photoshop bleaching going on.
It was this idiot who sold tickets on social media to the pool party. That is why so many people came. She decided to make money on property that was not hers for a purpose that was clearly prohibited.
It was this idiot who forgot to ask the HOA for permission which she would not have gotten.
It was this idiot who got into a physical fight with one of the home owners and that is when the police came.
She is to blame for all that happened but the policeman gets fired. Amazing!
The Photoshop PlugIn.....ZitBeGone......saw extensive use in the processing of that image, lemme tell you.
Someone isn’t very good with a filter, nor a blur tool. Or morphing. Look at the jawline.
Her with a modeling career?She’s delusional.
Uh huh. No agency mentioned = not a real model. Just someone calling herself a model.
Picture #1 looks like she got foul hooked by some fisherman’s lure but it looks like she was able to break free.
