Madison County Prosecutor Thomas Broderick, Jr., filed nine felony counts Thursday morning against the three individuals accused of confining and abusing 65-year-old Anna Turner and stealing her social security checks and medications.The charges include criminal confinement, theft, battery resulting in serious bodily injury, exploitation of an endangered adult, financial exploitation of an endangered adult, obtaining prescription by fraud, and possession of a controlled substance.
The Anderson Police Department was alerted to Turner’s situation thanks to a tip Adult Protective Service Director Tom Brown received. Officer Freddie Tevis went to the residence where he is reported to have found Turner locked in a small utility room.
All three individuals made an appearance by video before a judge, where not-guilty pleas were entered. Bonds were set at $100,000 each, full cash.
No further court dates have been set.

Such a sad, sad case. I hope these perps suffer the maximum punishment.
Vultures.
Why is it that if a "court appointed guardain" or fiduciary does things like confinement, exploitation, financial exploitation, prescription fraudulent activities. etc. they are protected by the court??
Now that these three have been caught, and I'm glad they were, but it's possible that this woman personal situtation may not be much improved... It appears she may need a guardian. Good Luck!!
