Scranton-Area Elder Abuse Caught On Film

An elder abuse claim in Scranton has been developing over the past while.  According to reports from The Times-Tribune, a man called in to Scranton-area police to report a claim of elder abuse against his mother, a woman in her 90s who suffers from Alzheimer's disease.  Her son had installed a secret camera in the house to keep an eye on her caretaker, who was shown physically and verbally abusing the patient on film.  

For more information on the story, please read the Times-Tribune article, which can be found here
