    Darrel White Accused Of Letting Maggots Feed On Dying Wife Jorene

    http://www.wlwt.com/news/24871940/detail.html




    CINCINNATI -- A Madisonville man is accused of neglecting his dying wife and allowing maggots to feed on her.

    Hamilton County prosecutors said Darrel White, 65, was indicted Friday on charges of involuntary manslaughter and failing to provide for a functionally impaired person.

    Investigators said White's wife, Jorene, 46, was bedridden and White was her sole caretaker.

    Police responded to a 911 call at the Whites' home on July 23 to find Jorene White dead in filthy conditions, covered in flies and maggots.

    But investigators discovered that while they originally thought White had been dead for a week, an autopsy revealed that she had only been dead for about a day, indicating that the maggots were feeding on her while she was alive.

    The autopsy determined that White died of a blood infection. Prosecutors said Darrel White didn't seek treatment as she became more ill.

    Agents went to Darrell White's home on Friday afternoon to take him into custody. He was arrested about a block away shortly before 5 p.m.

    No court date has been set so far.

    RIP Jorene White

    :2huh:

    I wonder if he was in any condition to be her sole caretaker anyway, considering he was 65. But still, damn.

    65 isn't necessarily all that old, depending on how well you take care of yourself over the years and provided that you don't have any major health issues.  My aunt is in her 80's and she's still kickin' it pretty well.

    Thank you for posting the pic.  I'm still trying to figure out how to do some of the fancy things lol
    I have been checking Hamilton Co and some surrounding Co's but so far I have only found this charge on his record.
    This had to have been going on for awhile. Wonder why she was bedridden? Did they never have any visitors in their house? So sad.
    Time for me to start my education on some online sleuthing...
    And Rip Jorene

    Darrel White, 65, was indicted for involuntary manslaughter and failing to provide for a functionally-impaired person, charges carrying a maximum prison sentence of 11½ years.

    He is accused of allowing his 46-year-old wife to die by not taking her to the doctor or taking care of her while she was sick.

    Jorene White slept in the living room, Piepmeier said, and her husband “always kept her covered with a sheet.” That’s why sons weren’t charged.

    --That is just disturbing!  Imagine when the sons are thinking now! All of that was happing in front of them but under a sheet What a weirdooooo

    I'm sure the sons will be fine, the denial seems strong with them.

    I don't understand how someone could expect to get away with something like this. 
    BUT, it made me giggle a little when I read this:
    "Mr. White wouldn't harm a fly, and the charges they're trying to bring Mr. White up on are bogus," Drennan said.
