He set up a hidden camera. What he found was despicable. My Fox Philly reports:Police cited the video and interviews with other staff members regarding three specific incidents that happened over a timespan of three weeks:On Oct. 7, Jones was rubbing her hands on the victim’s face and making punching motions to agitate him. There is another nurse in the room.On Oct. 16, Blaise appears to lunge at the victim as he gets agitated and flails his arms. In a police report, it says the woman used her legs and feet to stomp on his bare feet or kick him in the leg.On Oct. 24, Jones again is seen making punching motions at the man. She also grabs his wrists, uses his fist to punch himself in the face, and slapped him in the face, police said.It’s one thing to mess with somebody who’s coherent and can fight back, but to do these things to a patient suffering fromAlzheimer’s seems quite a bit colder. The two CNAs have been arrested and are being held without bail, facing counts of battery against an elderly person.While nursing home abuse is actually more rampant than you would think, it takes a video like this one to really get people riled up to uncover what really happens behind closed doors. Once again — as we quite often find out— the camera doesn’t lie.Note: The content of this article was edited after publication.
