SAN FRANCISCO / Felony charge in death of elderly roommate: "A 56-year-old graphic designer was charged Tuesday with felony elder abuse in the death of her 72-year-old roommate, who was found inside the squalid home they had shared for years, San Francisco authorities said.
Mary Moehle called 911 early Saturday to report her longtime housemate Janet Nieto was unconscious inside the home they shared in the Forest Hill area of San Francisco. Nieto died on Sunday.
When paramedics arrived at 2 a.m. Saturday, they found dozens of white 5-gallon buckets of urine and excrement. Moehle, who is the owner of the house, meanwhile, tried to stop Nieto from being treated.
'The suspect tried to prevent the Fire Department from administering first aid,' said Sgt. Neville Gittens, a police spokesman. 'She was trying to stop them.'"
