Daughter Accused of POW-Like Treatment of Her Father (Ohio, USA)

Dec 14, 2009


Reporter: Randy Yohe


In one of the worst cases of elder abuse ever seen in our region, a daughter is now behind bars and her father is finally getting food and water.


Larry Looney got very little food and maybe a cup of water a day, and photos we received just skim the surface of the horror story.


Last Friday, Portmsouth Police arrested and jailed Ashley Looney on multiple elder abuse charges. Detectives say for about a year, she imprisoned her helpless, mentally ill father in a Scioto Trail home.
Police say shocked witnesses first discovered and took pictures. They finally reported that Ashley Looney locked and boarded up her 60-year-old father in a room where he was starved, beaten, bound and left for days at a time naked in his own filth.
Police say Larry Looney received $900 a month in Social Security, and Ashley cashed the checks. She has two small kids, and there's evidence they possibly were abused. They are now staying with caring relatives.
Scioto County Adult Protective Services workers say in the past year, adult abuse investigations similar to this have shot up by more than a third, and those are just the cases reported.


The charges against Ashley Looney include abduction, felonious assault and failing to provide for a functionally impaired person. Police say she acted disturbed when her father was removed from the home in October and denies doing anything wrong.
