An elderly Flint woman was found living on a urine-soaked couch and wrapped in a tattered blanket crawling with roaches and maggots.
Her son, who also was her landlord, charged his 73-year-old mother $450 a month to live in an apartment with no heat or running water, police said.
"The place wasn't habitable for an animal, let alone a human," said Genesee County Sheriff Robert J. Pickell.
Anthony V. Cunturso, 47, is being held on $20,000 bond in the Genesee County Jail on charges of embezzlement of a vulnerable adult and second-degree vulnerable adult abuse.
Cunturso's mother was found April 23 after the county elder abuse team got a tip about an incontinent passenger who had been riding the bus.
Three investigators with the Genesee County Elder Abuse and Exploitation Prevention program gagged when they walked inside her Oak Street apartment.
