Why are small-brained, infantile idiots given a place of responsibility in dealing with elderly patients? If I could just be the prosecutor...
ALBERT LEA, Minn. "? For six assistants at an Albert Lea nursing home, poking, taunting and groping the vulnerable adults in their care was a laughing matter, prosecutors alleged Monday in filing criminal charges against the teens.
Two of the former Good Samaritan Society employees "? 19-year-old Brianna Broitzman and 18-year-old Ashton Larson "? are charged as adults, while the other four are considered juveniles in the Freeborn County case.
Messages left by The Associated Press for Broitzman and for an attorney representing Larson were not immediately returned Monday.
According to the criminal complaint, the teens laughed earlier this year as they spat in residents' mouths, poked and groped their breasts and genitals and at times taunted them until they screamed.
The four juveniles are charged with failing to report the incidents. A total of eight teens were allegedly involved in the incidents, but there was no record of criminal charges being filed against two of them.
Broitzman and Larson are charged with assault, abuse of a vulnerable adult by a caregiver, abuse of a vulnerable adult with sexual contact, disorderly conduct and failing to report suspected maltreatment. All are gross misdemeanors.
If found guilty, Broitzman and Larson "most likely will face suspended jail sentences and probation, so they'd have the threat of jail hanging over them if they get in more trouble," Freeborn County Attorney Craig Nelson told the Star Tribune of Minneapolis.
The Minnesota Department of Health released a report in August showing that 15 residents with Alzheimer's disease or other dementia disorders were abused at the facility between Jan. 1 and May 1.
According to the complaint filed Monday, one of the aides said the group gathered at work or school to "talk and laugh about the incidents."
Mark Anderson, administrator at the Good Samaritan Society in Albert Lea, told WCCO-TV that the past few months have been difficult for the staff, the home's residents and their families.
"We are just really thankful that the proceedings are moving forward and hopefully can see some closure to this whole process," Anderson said.

Easy one...healthcare isn't a right and the seniors are just left without a voice. Can't function much if they are being abused in a home, can't vote, so who cares. Just one more sad fact.
That would have been a straight up ass whipping on two little skunk whores had they done that to my mother. I would have honestly hunted them down and put a foot in their asses.

During interviews, Larson admitted to actions such as spitting water on a resident, lying in bed with a resident, touching a resident on the buttocks, inserting her finger into a resident's rectum, antagonizing a resident, <span style='font-size: 14pt'> humping a resident </span> and putting her hand over a resident's mouth because that resident would scream, court papers state.
One stated Broitzman put her bare rear end in one resident's face and that Larson would rub vigorously on residents' genital areas to sexually arouse them.
Briana is the tall one on the left.
