by RN2B123

Makes me sick. He preyed on innocent elderly women who couldn't defend themselves against this guy because of their stroke

Nearly speechless.....except for the fact if the other nurse's aide actually witnessed the abuse and reported it. Why didn't the facility report the problem. If the facility wasn't going to do something about it that's when you call the proper authorities yourself to stop the abuse ASAP!
This went on for years.....OMG!!!! I would have decked him on the spot and worry about the consequenses later. (I know, not a good idea either) But, this is someone's mother or grandmother!!!!!!!!

What I find more disturbing is the systemic cover-up that went on for years. I almost think they deserve something worse than this guy does. :

Was nothing learned from the scandal that rocked the Catholic church?!?!

How disgusting , Hope those ladies get the JUSTICE they need to at least bring some closure. I hope he gets all the punishment he can get for doing those horrendous things to them. OMG-I'm getting sick just thinking about how hopeless those ladies were, but glad that someone witnessed it to put a stop to his wrong doings. Kudos for the nurse that came forward!

I literally threw up! Absolutely revolting...My grandmother passed away from a stroke. I can't even begin to imagine the things I would do to the pervert if this happened to my grandmother!

This is a truly horrendous crime, and I hope the man (and the higher ups in the company) are punished justly. I don't know how many of you read the comments to the article, but one person had a good point. People need to check over the elderly who such poor health, and make sure they have no abnormal bruising or other injuries. This is so dispicable, I can't even think of a way to say what I'm thinking...
