Woman ‘melted’ to couch; autopsy showed she was eating it, parents out on bond

The parents of an autistic woman who died and was essentially ‘melted’ to a couch have bonded out of jail and have been indicted on second degree murder charges. The woman was found in such decrepit conditions, a coroner who responded to the scene reportedly couldn’t eat for a week. An investigative reporter in Baton Rogue, LA lays out the disturbing details he’s uncovered since he broke the story and also explains what is next.

    This is so so 😭 sad , it literally breaks my heart 💔

    What about all the people that knew them in the past 12 years and said NOTHING? They should be in jail to. I know there are plenty of people who knew they had they’re daughter on that couch for all that time, and even asked the parents about it, and still never called the police.

  3. Patricia Rose on December 15, 2022 at 1:02 am

    This pair needs to sit in prison for life to think about what they’ve done. It will take them that long to go over every day of their own daughter’s life.

  4. Timothy Hutcherson on December 15, 2022 at 1:05 am

    The parents are going to have the book thrown at them. When they are sent to prison, their hell will just be starting. The other inmates will kill both of them most likely.

  5. Lisa Shafer on December 15, 2022 at 1:05 am

    Who let these people out on bond? Wth?

  6. Chris Guitars on December 15, 2022 at 1:06 am

    There is a special place in hell for people like this. I wish before they go there they can live just one day as they forced her daughter to live, and then remind them that she lived 4000 days longer in the same hell.

  7. Ashley Jae on December 15, 2022 at 1:07 am

    I’m speechless
    I just …. I’m just so shocked and speechless

  8. Jac Fitz on December 15, 2022 at 1:07 am

    Evil monsters

  10. S J on December 15, 2022 at 1:09 am

    Everybody shouldn’t be parents.

  11. bakai on December 15, 2022 at 1:10 am

    Could never be me 😹😹

  12. tzunammi shadai on December 15, 2022 at 1:11 am

    I can’t digest this one…

  13. Onur Ozerol on December 15, 2022 at 1:11 am

    when they are out of kindness and love they are out of it it is human nature and there is no religion no norms no moral value to replace it it is their so called freewill if there is such thing philosophically or scientifically

  14. TheBros2theend on December 15, 2022 at 1:12 am

    Jesus Christ loves you

  15. Brendan Kirby on December 15, 2022 at 1:12 am

    Are the parents in jail for it?

  16. Sophia Azhiev on December 15, 2022 at 1:23 am

    Wtf, Death penalty PLEASE!

  17. Leonie Moar on December 15, 2022 at 1:25 am

    How are these two out on bail

  18. KC M on December 15, 2022 at 1:26 am

    That should have never happened. There are places here where parents/ caregivers of people with ASD or other developmental disorders can take their children if they are having trouble caring for them. There is 41 acre center nearby that houses and cares for their "residents". I can only imagine how well she would have been off if she had been taken to a place like that with a team to help meet her needs.

  19. Motivation4uk on December 15, 2022 at 1:26 am

    There is more to this story the truth will come out eventually

  20. G Shock Babe614 on December 15, 2022 at 1:27 am

    Scumbags who should never taste freedom again!

  21. Miss Victoria on December 15, 2022 at 1:28 am

    Hang the sorry low count disgusting pieces of pure White Trash

  22. Jul Pro-jordan on December 15, 2022 at 1:29 am

    Can not be that horrific if they get bonded out

  23. Daniel Federspiel on December 15, 2022 at 1:29 am

    Get me out of this damn hillbilly ass town guy!!

  24. Rik on December 15, 2022 at 1:30 am

    I hope that she is in a better place now, fully restored to her true self that should have been nurtured and cultivated while she had living organic breath. I have to believe there is a better place for those that are truly innocent and get treated this way.

  25. BB Williams on December 15, 2022 at 1:32 am

    And they probably got a check for her every month, and they probably remembered to spend that check every month…..

  26. Dan Cortes on December 15, 2022 at 1:36 am

    This is simply unbelievable. This is like something from a horror movie. The saddest part is that this whole situation was easily avoidable if the parents had just a little decency and awareness. I too have autism and had some both good and bad periods in my life. The bad periods usually coincided with a lack of support. This girl was not a lost cause and just needed some support and help but never received it. Both parents deserve to be locked up for the rest of their lives.

  27. Janea Mabrey on December 15, 2022 at 1:38 am

    Wait I was 😂😂rolling where he said “Dead Beat Ass Parents “ what news station is this.

  28. Big Mike Johnson on December 15, 2022 at 1:38 am

    This country is done (and done intentionally).

  29. M Dawson on December 15, 2022 at 1:40 am

  30. Nancy Selzer on December 15, 2022 at 1:41 am

    They should strap her parents to a chair and let them sit there for 10 years in their own excrement.

  31. Eddie Cardona on December 15, 2022 at 1:42 am

    That is so fucked up how could they not get this girl help if there ain’t a hell there needs to be one for these sick fuckers

  32. Mykiea on December 15, 2022 at 1:43 am

  33. Beautiful Beauty46 on December 15, 2022 at 1:43 am

  34. Michele Cordell on December 15, 2022 at 1:43 am

  35. Louija Spirits on December 15, 2022 at 1:44 am

  36. Salim Peeroo on December 15, 2022 at 1:44 am

    What kind of parent is this, let your own daughter dies in such suffering

  37. Dana 313 on December 15, 2022 at 1:47 am

    I wonder how she went from playing volleyball to being sedentary??

  38. Bru on December 15, 2022 at 1:49 am

    I think they should make torture legal in these cases because I just wanna do something to make them feel the pain they caused her

  39. Patricia Rose on December 15, 2022 at 1:49 am

    This level of neglect is worse than abuse. Crime against humanity 😞

  40. Doc “Frankenstein” ___ on December 15, 2022 at 1:51 am

    Not church going people….

  41. Jeremiah Taylor on December 15, 2022 at 1:51 am

    update?

  42. E M J on December 15, 2022 at 1:54 am

    There is no way the parents didn’t reek with foul odors…no way…how on earth did the mother’s co-workers and the parents’ fellow church goers not call authorities for a welfare check? The parents shouldn’t have been bonded out….horrific..
    Evil Walks the Earth!!!

  43. MrsStrawberryLuv1 on December 15, 2022 at 1:54 am

  44. Angel Ables on December 15, 2022 at 1:54 am

    They need to go-to prison for the rest of their lives.

  45. Tyrone Sandoval on December 15, 2022 at 1:55 am

  46. ldcow on December 15, 2022 at 1:55 am

    This is so bad I almost threw up when he said she started eating that couch.

  47. Mark Defren on December 15, 2022 at 1:56 am

    Death Penalty is called for here . Also the executions need to be public as a example to other Evil Doers !!

  48. Merari Gomez on December 15, 2022 at 1:57 am
