Texas Man Accidentally Choked His Girlfriend To Death During Sex

A Texas man has been charged with manslaughter after confessing to choking his girlfriend to death while the pair were having sex, cops said.

Harris County sheriff’s deputies responded to an address in the 800 block of Ashland Boulevard in Channelview around 2:20 a.m. Tuesday for a medical emergency report.

Officers found 24-year-old DeJe Garett-Hillard lying unresponsive. She was rushed to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

Deputies interviewed the victim’s boyfriend, 27-year-old Jaaron Thomas, who allegedly told them that the amorous couple were engaged in erotic asphyxiation when Garrett-Hillard became unresponsive.

Erotic asphyxiation refers to a sex act that involves intentionally cutting off air supply to the brain through choking to increase sexual arousal
