Daughter Indicted In Shocking Case

04/03/2008 06:25:24


DAYTON, Ohio -- A woman arrested after authorities found her 63-year-old mother sitting her in own feces and suffering from insect-infested wounds has been indicted by a Montgomery County grand jury.

Lisa McDevitt, 34, faces charges of felony failure to provide for a functionally impaired person and misdemeanor child endangering.

Her daughter, 7, was living in an apartment Dayton police said was in deplorable shape. McDevitt was arrested March 22 after a woman called for an ambulance to report her mother was suffering a seizure at her apartment on Ritchie Street.

Medics found an apartment filled with cockroaches, feces and maggots. Sharon McDevitt, the mother, is disabled and cannot care for herself, police said.
