  1. HOW could these 3 👹monsters live with their noncaring neglect 😪 & reap unchecked payment of $thousands! Give THEM the same pain & treatment!😡
    WHERE were the supervisors & families?!

  2. This is horrible poor woman god be with her an see that justice is done 🙌🙏🏽

  3. Where were these rich men is suites when she needed them the most?

  4. It's a sad news. This is one example of caregivers who are actually not cut out for caregiver.

  5. Occult behavior???? After all occults need to make a living too!

  6. 🇺🇸 👎

    😲

    Conta

  7. I'ma paraplegic vet confined to a hospital bed and i was left in my own feces for a year and a half because of the center for aging and disability "lost" my paperwork.. was supposed to be 3 day's according to the AG… But no one will sue the state.. coward lawyer's!!

  8. That reminds you of what Gertrude Banishewski did to Silvia Likens.

  9. Wow I knew it was going to be bad but this is unimaginable

  10. They should be tied up, tortured, then thrown in jail. This is disgusting

  11. It's not uncommon for bedsores to get that bad. But these women had no clue. My mom got them and i had her on a special water mattress and i turned her every 2 hours. She died of a stroke. I was nearly hospitalized for exhaustion. But there were 3 of they! And they should have taken this woman to a hospital! Long ago. obviously Idiots. Greedy ones. Wow

  12. Tortured a disabled woman until death………………………. I just…….

  13. If I ever get to a point where I can no longer care for myself, I'd rather commit suicide as my own choice with dignity than to go into one of those homes..

  14. Women.

    Salem Witch Trials.

  15. Should give the life with no parole.

  16. What a travesty…like who couldn't see the abuses that would arise from placing a disabled person into such an uncontrolled/unregulated environment???

  17. Lock them up for life

  18. Dear God. As a person with a disability and a journalismmajori highly recommend NBC consider doing an undercover investigation across the country. This is not an isolated incident. It is just the beginning. The ADA community deserves a voice: give them one.

  19. More peaceful acts peacefully brought to us by the peaceful people of the peaceful culture of peace….

    Peace out

  20. Humanity is a cancer.

  21. That’s what’s up
