"A Louisiana couple whose daughter was found dead — covered in human waste after sitting fused into their couch for up to 12 years — have been indicted on second-degree murder charges in the shocking case of “acute medical neglect". Sheila and Clay Fletcher were arrested without incident Monday in the death of their daughter, Lacey Ellen Fletcher.
Lacey may have sat in her own filth for about 12 years, according to the coroner, she was found covered in maggots and sores and “melted” into a hole in the living room couch of the family’s Slaughter home. Bickham said Lacey, who had ulcers, bacterial infections and other ailments, died of “acute medical neglect” dating back at least to 2010. The mother was a town alderman who resigned from her post in February, according to WBRZ. The father is reportedly an officer of the Baton Rouge Civil War Roundtable, a nonprofit whose mission is “to educate and foster an appreciation for the sacrifices made by all during the Civil War.”
