Definitely the stuff of nightmares! Poor woman!
OMG! It sounds like the plot of a Steven King novel. The “caretaker” would have to have been feeding her...and ignoring that she was defecating and urinating all over herself and the chair for...a year? We’re to think that the caretaker didn’t know she was stuck in the chair? And the smell was so bad it reached to the sidewalk, but the caretaker just said it was always like that?
It sounds like some protracted attempted first degree murder. I’d have to guess something like the caretaker cashing the woman’s social security checks?
