A home health aide fatally struck her elderly patient in his Long Island home, then cleaned the house as he lay dying, cops said Wednesday.
The network identified the victim as John Busch, who was suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and was on blood thinners when Godwin hit him with a wooden object.
“Apparently, the victim was in an elderly state,” Fitzpatrick said. “He was aggressive at times and she just lost her temper at this point and hit him.” Police said in a statement they were called to the home at 9:26 p.m. on Monday and found a man with a laceration to his head. He was pronounced dead by paramedics soon after, cops said.
Godwin, a Bayshore resident, was arrested at the scene and arraigned on Wednesday. She was slapped with charges of second-degree manslaughter and endangering the welfare of an incompetent or physically disabled person, according to Nassau police.Share this article:
