Another case of ‘abuse’

SHOCKING PHOTOGRAPHS of an elderly woman in an emaciated state, her frail body consumed with bedsores, hit the Internet last week, one day after the video of Jasmin Hall being ill-treated in a home for the elderly.

The woman who posted the pictures pleaded with the authorities to intervene.

She wrote on her Facebook page: “Another elderly woman in Barbados that is badly malnourished, being beaten every day, this lady is legally blind. Authorities have been called in several times on this case and did nothing . . . These pics are again disturbing; some seen with the lady left in her own faeces and a video of her saying the family member hitting her in the back.”

Please read the full story in today’s Sunday Sun, or in the eNATION edition.
