Three people who had been caring for a disabled Utah woman who was found dead are accused of beating her, putting a pepper seed in her eye, and binding her wrists and ankles with restraints so she couldn't remove it.
Police found 22-year-old Christina Harms dead Friday in her home in the town of Kearns, about 24 kilometres south of Salt Lake City.
Unified Police Lt. Justin Hoyal says investigators found Harms' body covered in bruises and marks on her wrists and ankles consistent with the use of restraints.
An autopsy to determine the cause of death is pending, but police believe the abuse was a key factor.
Hoyal says Harms' live-in caregivers and her legal guardian were arrested and booked into the Salt Lake County jail on Sunday. No bail has been set.

Very sad and it will be interesting to see how this case turns out.
I will pray that the culprits are held accountable.
They need a very harsh penalty.
This story should be on every front page of every known newspaper in America as well as all the NEWS Stations on TV, every Radio Station And Posted on the Internet along with all the other horror stories of how our Disabled and Older Americans are being Abused and Murdered by Predators straight from Hell.
We need to "WARN" American's about the slaughtering and Abuse of our Own People before we start sending $Billions of Dollars to other countries. I have No Problem helping other Countries BUT, why not TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN FIRST ?
Many Helpless Americans and FAMLIES in America are desperate, Disabled, and Homeless. Our Older Americans and Disabled are being exploited, abused, isolated, once their money is gone the victim is euthanized, murdered, if you don't believe it read all the stories on the NASGA Blog about Guardianship Abuse...
Before Making other countries America's number one priority, it's Past Time for America to start making American's the Number One Priority.
What happened to this woman was nothing but pure Evil.
Wake up America before this happens to Your Family member or Even You....
They should all be locked up forever.
