British-Nigerian nursing student found death in her apartment
A 23-year-old British-Nigerian nursing student, Tamilore Odunsi, was found stabbed to death in her Houston apartment just days before she was due to graduate.
Police discovered Tamilore’s body in the kitchen with multiple stab wounds during a welfare check after a family friend raised concerns. Blood was found on the patio, prompting officers to force entry into the two-bedroom flat.
Originally from London, Tamilore moved to the U.S. in 2022 to pursue a nursing degree and had recently celebrated her upcoming graduation on TikTok, where she was known as “Tami Dollars” to over 30,000 followers.
Authorities revealed she had recently moved in with a man she barely knew. He was found in a bedroom with stab wounds and was taken to hospital in critical condition. Police described the two as “complete strangers” who had only started living together a few weeks prior.
The Houston Police Department confirmed that the investigation is ongoing.
