ALTOONA, Pa. —
The owner and two workers at a Blair County personal care home have been charged with neglecting an 80-year-old man who died in November, after he was found covered in bed sores and human waste.
The state Department of Public Welfare revoked the license of Warner's Home for the Aged in Altoona shortly after Kenneth McGuire died in November. He had lived there since February 2007, according to the Altoona Mirror.
Online court records don't list attorneys for the home's owner, 64-year-old Sherry Jo Warner, or two care aides arrested on the state grand jury charges Tuesday. Warner's home phone is disconnected, The Associated Press reported Wednesday.
All three face a preliminary hearing Oct. 3 on a charge of neglect of a care-dependent person.
A forensic exam found that McGuire was in a "state of ill health, malnutrition and wasting."
