A nursing assistant at a hospice in the city of New Smyrna, in northeast Florida, was arrested and accused this Thursday of sexual assault on an old woman of 90 years with dementia, local media reported.
Billy Bunn, aged 54 and resident in Daytona Beach, was arrested and charged with the crimes of “lewd conduct and sexual assault on a person of 60 years or older”, according to a statement from the New Smyrna Police, in Volusia County.
The authorities allege that Bunn entered the room of the old woman, who remains prostrate and with dementia in a bed in the hospice, showed him his genitals and then grabbed his hand and put it on his penis.
A nurse who was passing by at that time There she saw what was happening, quickly left the room and returned to the kitchen of the establishment, very nervous in case Bunn confronted her or threatened her if she tried to ask for help, the Orlando Sentinel newspaper reported.
The nurse, who told authorities she had never seen Bunn before, contacted the hospice owner minutes later and told him about the sexual abuse that he had witnessed.
Police officers did not find any evidence at the scene, but did find four videos and digital photos of the suspect entering the victim’s room.
According to the police statement: “We take any allegation of misconduct extremely seriously. We are working closely with the local authorities investigation, while conducting our own internal review. The health and well-being of our patients are at the center of everything we do. Out of respect for the ongoing investigation, we are unable to comment further at this time.”
