A woman who became known online for saying that a man assaulted her with a brick outside of a Houston club was charged Wednesday with felony theft for the creation of a crowdfunding campaign in which people online donated more than $40,000.
Roda Osman, 33, is facing charges of felony theft by deception but has not been arrested, as her whereabouts are currently unknown to authorities. In September, she posted on social media following an alleged altercation in front of a club, saying that she was assaulted by a man who hit her with a brick after she turned down his advances. The post, which did not include footage of the alleged assault, went viral, launching debates online about whether her story was to be believed.
According to a charging document that the Harris County District Attorney’s Office shared with NBC News, police responded to the incident in September. Osman said she was hit in the face with a brick by an unknown man because she would not share her phone number with him.
Osman also said that she got into a car that she thought was an Uber, and that the driver tried to kidnap her, the report stated. According to the document, she said the driver tried to hit her.
Weeks later, the detective who wrote an affidavit for the district attorney’s office reviewed local surveillance footage of the moments leading up to the incident. In the video, Osman was spotted with a friend, and the man she later identified as the person who hit her. They got into a car together and then exited the car. The detective said the footage showed Osman slapping the man, and then he hit her back, with a water bottle in his hand.
“We think that’s what left the mark on her face,” Keith Houston, from the Harris County District Attorney’s Office, told KPRC, an NBC affiliate in Houston. “But it was mutual combat.”
According to the charging document, a friend who was with Osman the night of the incident told police that she did not believe Osman was hit with a brick.
However, the initial social media posts about the incident led to a fundraiser on GoFundMe, bringing in more than 1,000 donations totaling at least $42,000. The crowdfunding page has since been deactivated.
“GoFundMe has zero tolerance for the misuse of our platform and cooperates with law enforcement investigations of those accused of wrongdoing,” a spokesperson for GoFundMe said in a statement to NBC News. “The fundraiser has been removed from the platform, all donors have been refunded, and Roda Osman has been banned from using the platform for any future fundraisers.”

Imagine you were outside a bar and there’s a lady there waiting for a uber but before she gets in the Uber somebody comes and says hey what’s up boo how are you doing and it’s a man right and she says hey how are you doing and he was
Like Hey loo I’m trying to see what’s up with you I’d like to get your number and she’s like date music ew no I could never date you you’re so ugly OA right Who and the guy walks around picks up a brick and goes boom boom in the face
Immediately her face starts swelling she gets on to Tik Tok and she records a video how would you feel well stop the show yeah a lot of us as men would feel very weired about that because we would at least try to do something or at least
Call the police but that never happened because it didn’t happen it was all made up and the person who made that up was Roa Osman now I’m talking about that because it’s very interesting because when she came came out and talked down about the men who didn’t help her she
Blamed black men I’m not going to play the video of her face swelling because for whatever reason YouTube will demonetize that but she said Angry music you black man watch me get hit in the face and you didn’t do anything which caused what so many people to start
Hating on black men and talking down on black men as being cowards and I would play Cynthia G’s video but oops she got kicked off the platform can I get o fact yeah and all the black female haters of black men were down in Black Men talking down on black men for not
Helping this lady but then came the GoFundMe and of course people were donating and giving money to Roa Osman the lady in question and guess what she started doing with the money well no it wasn’t that she lost her job or needed her money to do something she started doing things like
This so I’m about to go rafting and I’m about to let a Jamaican man massage this [Laughter] body I need this to be documented because this woman told me that I can’t wear a bikini but every white woman is wearing bikini but because my butt is
Big my she that’s a problem this is my body it’s valid I can’t leave my in the hotel room this is how I look I can’t just leave my and then just come out without it so what are yall going to do I need y’all to write this down I need
Y’all to document because I’m not paying $300 a night so I can leave my in the hotel room my body is valid there’s nothing sexual about my body there’s nothing innately sexual about a person’s human body yo I’m not going to let it ruin my day because I have better things
To do but this is so [ __ ] disgusting like she going to be like can you put on some other clothes no I cannot I’m going to be like this and actually I’m going to take off the skirt and show you my th and twerk at my ass that’s right she
Went on vacation and I thought that she was actually gay but no she said the Jamaican man is going to rub that body oh my God and the person who brought all this to the top was celebr or celebrate podcast and guess what that wasn’t the first time that Roa
Osman said that she was attacked and launched the GoFundMe cuz that happened 2020 but we’ll also get back to that but let’s get to the point of the conversation where all these black women were trying to hold black men accountable and on her side although she
Was scamming him and guess what she had to say about the scamming thing they feel let’s say whatever everything was Li it’s crazy to me how they would go so hard against a black person that they think is a scammer but you have these these these these white police officers
Who un alive black children and made a million and had a GoFundMe and they did not bring that energy to these people that hate us and that’s what really upsets me about my people and I tell this to every single person that has an issue with you they try to get you shut
Down I’m like how dare y’all come at this black woman and y’all don’t even have the facts and police off also say that black people we love scamming we talk about scamming all the time like we like since when do we have a problem with scamming I last time I checked I
Black people to scamm they scammed us you see at the end she loves scamming she don’t have no problem with scamming oh my god did you see that shout out to her she didn’t have any problem with scamming but it gets worse right after that she alleged that two black women
Tried to attack her oh my God how is she having these many problems I was like so happy to report like this is my first weekend out without having a pan PC attack but then I got actually attacked physically as you can see I have a welt right
Here a little wealth right here don’t worry cannot fight but two black women in their 40s decided to attack me as I was leaving the establishment so many people were talking about celebrate podcast they were out there hating on her talking about she’s a black female
Hater and all of this stuff but you know what the receipts got in to the sergeant and you know what she actually spoke to the sergeant because her calls were going viral she kept calling the Houston Police Department finding out that no police departments were there and yeah these fraud cases started getting
Activated and here’s proof of that since they want I’m not a police officer I’m a concerned citizen but what I do is I expose people who lie and especially try to tear down the police department because all it’s going to do people are not going to trust going to you guys
Right need correct so I was trying to show detective thoron that Roa Osman was creating another scenario to get money and it’s like she didn’t want to see the evidence when it started to get hot and then she stopped talking to me for 2 and 1/2 weeks and it really upset me because
She was asking me for all this evidence and I was sending it to her sending it to her and then she goes to me but when you have a person who is claiming she was assaulted and now she’s in the club drinking again doing handstands you know
Taking off her top doing all these things that victims usually don’t do when the assment is still out there it’s been almost 2 months there hasn’t been an arrest and R Osman is still you know doing her makeup getting her haircut you know spending money on diamonds and
Pearls and it’s just it’s it’s out of control and I just wanted to bring this to your attention because for for weeks I’ve been ignored yeah and and you say you sent those videos and and things to detective Thon that is correct I sent her this almost and I can forwarded you
Everything I sent her I said hey detective thoron you told me that you were the one that froze her golf on me but now she’s claiming she got almost $50,000 and she’s in the strip club I said can you please call me because I have a fraud case against her and if
This is what’s going on is the case open is it closed I want to continue my case I’m not going to let this woman fraud um the system so that the next woman can do it and potentially be harmed okay um yeah I see that officer
Neil um talked with I think Roa back in uh October 18th yeah she was an unknown female does not know they approached the security guard the location mentioning the fact she was hit with the brick supposedly but then the people in the in the bar are saying no she was in there
You know up and got H with the spot yes I just want to make sure that right is right and wrong is wrong and I think that what she did was she made the Houston Police look bad um and she just made all this money and she is laughing
In everyone’s faces right and once this case is over we uh we’ll probably send all the the fraud and fraudulence information to our uh Financial crimes and property hand any type of financial crime or maybe even IR I’ll make a phone call or two today or tomorrow gotch you
[ __ ] but then here’s the icing on the cake guys Roa got charged and she is banned from GoFundMe check this out she told the detective that responded that she was hit in the head with a brick after she refused to give her phone number to a guy on the street and was
That verified by any of the evidence that detectives looked at no that was not verified Harris County prosecutor Keith Houston says surveillance videos from that early September Morning Show Osman hitting a man first so she’s the one who the she was the aggressor she was the aggressor yes and it was a water
Bottle that hit her not a brick he did have a water bottle in his hand and we think that’s what left the mark according to court documents she asked someone else to launch this GoFundMe for her recovery raising more than $42,000 but as the story went viral a blogger on
Tik Tok called police alerting them to this 2020 GoFundMe which claimed a vicious assault by a security guard in Minneapolis prosecutors alleged theft by deception and believe she would have received all that money had the campaign not been shut down the GoFundMe has zero tolerance for the misuse of our platform
The fundraiser has been removed from the platform all donors have been refunded and Roa Osman has been banned from using using the platform for any future fundraisers Osman did not respond when I reached out to her on Instagram this evening tonight she is wanted here in Harris County on that theft charge
Anyone with information on her whereabouts can report that to Houston police and this is what I’ll do for you okay when Char you know the report is you know still confid iial information right yes but but charges are public information correct sir so when CH if Char when or if
Charges are filed I will call you and let you know so you can look look them up on the Harris County database okay that a good deal that’s a good deal I I have it written down but give me your phone number again yes sir 2295 okay I’m

🤦🏽♂🤦🏽♂ Now she bringing her BS 💩💩 to 🇯🇲🇯🇲 when is someone going to stop her
Good job og black woman! We love yall!
Kadia Iman (mic snatcher), Carlee Russell, Keke Palmer, and now Brick lady. They never accept that they have been lied to. Responding emotionally and blaming BM for everything is more fun.
Houston is hot right now! I can't wait until I get to see her trial! She sound like she smokes cigarettes for a living! This is hilarious man!😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
90% of BW in America are like her. They are Bi and that’s why they don’t care to submit to men. They have their physical needs met by the rose and from women that they present as their “friends” , but it’s their fwb in reality. They live in their own bubble and we need to stop acting Ike they are for us
I appreciate seeing a black woman standing up for us for a change. I got something in my eye….🥲
@OshayDukeJackson I agree with you and Blessed her cashapp… but fam, imo, she needs some help with her Live… I stopped by to show support but there was some struggle streaming to the degree TLA speaks on 😅 … like TK
4:03 she blaming black men on both ends dummy I want to see a perp walk damn it
Thank you, God Bless
THAT'S WHAT THE TETHER GET😊😊😊
You kept saying “this sister “ my brother. Please publish her info so I can support, reward, & fund her.
As a retired cop myself… sounds like Detective Thornton was tryna kick the can down the street and try and make it all go away. Get in your business and so ur damm job!!! 😡😡😡
Glad the caller kept the pressure on. 😎
Like this post if you sent CelebriD some funds. 🎉
The US Marshals will find her. She won’t be free for long.
People tag women like this as confident, strong , non-independent (yes cos she had to rely on Gofundme donations) black woman. You see what an average black man deals with , now consider the profiling, sectionalism, racism, and all the negative *.ism you know. That’s right we have to live our lives like this, while aspiring to be successful. When he ends up being successful he focuses on protecting himself and his assets instead of helping his people. Cos his own people (women), are out there to bring him down, in addition to the bullshit he had to experience to be where he is. And I forgot these women are the ones raising this gun shoot out kids, drug dealers, scammers, and more..
How do they think that she god that huge hematoma on the side of her face? Maybe she had been in a fight with someone? That is a mystery.
Good night heart. You all be safe love you ❤️
Absolutely spot on, Oshay. Too many black men diss black women or co-sign other folks that diss our women then get that shocked pikachu face when those same people diss black men(King Richez goofy ass and Sa Ra Garvey too)
I was diagnosed with four 4th stage medical problems, cancer, tumor, thrombiotic block and cirrohis. All fourth stage. Do you know how much money I recieved from GOFUNDME. Take a guess. 0.0 F ck anybody who got more.
