DORA, Ala. (AP) — A woman charged with caring for an elderly Alabama man has been arrested in connection to his death.
News outlets report 58-year-old Sharon Kay Lewis was
charged Wednesday with manslaughter and elderly abuse and neglect in the
death of James Johnson Woods. Charging documents say Woods died last
September from sepsis, malnutrition and pneumonia.
Court records made public Thursday say Lewis was released
that same day on a written promise to appear in court. Cordova Police
spokesman T.J. Armstrong says elderly abuse charges can apply to a range
of cases from financial exploitation to sexual abuse. Full Article & Source:
