A 65-year-old Westside woman is behind bars after her 92-year-old mother died following weeks of hospitalization from apparent elder abuse, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office announced Thursday.

Iris Vanessa Kinamon, initially charged last month with aggravated elderly abuse, was rebooked Wednesday night on a second-degree murder charge, jail records show. She was her mother's primary caregiver at their home on West Alfredo Drive off Ortega Farms Boulevard, according to her arrest report.

Officers were first called to Orange Park Medical Center early Nov. 3 to investigate a possible case of elderly abuse after the victim was brought in with a severe cut on her left leg, according to the arrest report.
