Abedinecho Kyalo Katue, a Kenyan nurse and popular TikToker, left custody in Florida after posting bond following his arrest for alleged misconduct at an Orlando hospital.
Authorities held the 46-year-old at the Orange County Jail after linking him to reports of sexual assault involving a patient at AdventHealth Orlando. Investigators report that the incident occurred on January 26, 2025, with a patient recovering from a leg amputation and confined to her bed.
According to detectives, Katue entered the woman’s room multiple times during the night and made comments that she found offensive. The situation allegedly worsened during what Katue reportedly termed a “medical check.”

The patient alerted hospital staff to the encounter immediately. Following the report, the hospital launched an internal investigation and placed Katue on administrative leave. Law enforcement continued to track the case for nearly a year before locating and arresting Katue on March 4, 2026.
An Orlando court set the bond at $75,000. To secure his temporary release, Katue had to pay 10% of that amount -roughly $7,500. Supporters mentioned that raising the funds proved difficult because the bond company required additional collateral, such as property.
The Kenyan diaspora in the United States organized fundraising campaigns to cover the costs. Supporters credited Katue’s former wife, Rebecca Samuel, with coordinating these efforts.
Katue now faces serious felony charges for the alleged abuse of a disabled patient. As investigators continue their work, the public awaits further court dates.
