MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- A caretaker at a nonlicensed home for elderly and vulnerable adults has been indicted on first-degree murder and other felony charges, Shelby County District Attorney Amy Weirich's office said Monday.
According to a news release, Anthony Freeman, 53, was charged nearly a year after a woman was found dead in her hospital bed with blunt force injuries and cuts on her body.
Law enforcement officials say video surveillance shows that Cynthia Garrison, 59, fell out of her bed at her residence in Cordova and then for more than two hours was beaten with a board by Freeman.
Freeman is being held on a $150,000 bond.
