Roswell police say they've uncovered one of the most disturbing cases of neglect and abuse they have ever seen.
Investigators say Tracy York, 37, and her brother Darrell Lawrence, 29, kept their mother in horrific conditions in a Roswell home for up to two years. Lawrence was arrested Friday morning. His sister Tracy remains on the run.
Earlier this month, Mary Ford, 58, was taken to the hospital.
Hospital staff called police due to Ford's condition.
Investigators say Ford was covered in human waste and had urine soaked bandages.
The bandages on her arms were on so long; her skin began to grow into them.
