I remember when Fruitland PD was called there the first time. Good job Brian.
This doesnt surprise me in the least. I used to be neighbors with these people and their house smelled awful. They were packrats and the grandfather (George/Mary's husband) was a real creeper. He always walked around in a dirty white tshirt with his belly hanging out of the bottom and an unlit cigarette hanging from his lips (BLEH!). Amy and Sherry are free loading sisters that lived with this poor lady. Michelle was just a child when I knew her and her younger sister Crystal. It is sad because they are just a product of the environment they were raised in. This family reminds me of something out of a Rob Zombie flick.
I have been told by a source in the Sheriffs office that drug charges are also pending against 2 of the people
If your dates are correct, why did it take 15 months to bring about arrest? That would be a story within itself, having an elderly woman suffer 15 months before anyone can decide the family should be arrested.
Are these the same bunch of degenerates that were arrested and charged with the same thing about a year ago?
its awful wat happened to mrs baker..but to down her husband and her family?how clean and so precious are you?!!..the lady layed bed ridden were she was comfortable and in her home were her husband layed beside her.Then was taken out to a nursing home were she only lived 2 wks..poor lady died heartbroken with out her family next to her!!
She lived only 2 weeks after taken from the home 8:08? She was probably taken from the home because she was suffering from massive infections and other ailments brought on by neglect which was the ultimate cause of her death.
Blah! Blah! @ 8:08...Do your research...the proof is in the pudding. When they found her she was in the fetal position because she has a severe muscular atrophy...which means her muscles hadnt been manipulated in quite sometime for her to end up like that, hence the bedsores. (google it) I certainly hope my husband doesnt curl up in bed next to me and ignore me if I am in that state.
P.S. Precious and clean I am...I would never allow my family to live in squalor. If you read my post before you would know I lived in the same neighborhood which means I am not living high on the hog either. My mother raised me without a lot of money but taught me to be clean and take pride in my home. Just sayin...
I know the family and they lost thier Son from Cancer not long ago.. What a Shame..
