Former Edmonson nursing home employees arraigned

Three former employees at Genesis HealthCare’s Edmonson Center nursing home pleaded not guilty Monday to several charges stemming from allegations of residential abuse.

Jerry Snyder, Kelly Duvall and Kayla Kinser will return to Edmonson Circuit Court on Dec. 15 following their arraignments.

Snyder, 30, of Leitchfield, is charged with 14 counts each of first-degree criminal abuse, knowingly abusing or neglecting an adult and fourth-degree assault, plus two counts of second-degree wanton endangerment.

Duvall, 49, of Sweeden, and Kinser, 22, of Leitchfield, each face charges of four counts of first-degree criminal abuse, knowingly abusing or neglecting an adult and fourth-degree assault, along with two counts of second-degree wanton endangerment.

The indictments against the one-time employees accuse them of abusing two women who reside at the nursing home between August 2013 and February.
