He said he anticipates he will have charges formed at best by the end of this week or early next week.
The Albert Lea Police Department conducted a separate investigation of the case, but has not yet released its report.
To quotes from the story in the paper. So much for I know a guy who knows a guy that heard something somewhere.

Santorini, I completely agree that a nursing home could never be a "home" to most residents..it is not their real home. It is a facility that they live in because they are not able to care for themselves...But you might be surprised to know that many residents consider GS their home because overall it is a good facility. Thank goodness not everyone thinks the way you do, or you and I would both be without a job... By the way, I DO work at GS and I DO see first hand what a great facility it is... What happened was very, very sad...But it was a few girls that caused this problem, not the facility as a whole...

Scooby,
I agree with you. The women, not girls, need to be held accountable, but Good Sam is a good place.

Yes they will
It's amazing that no ones touches on the real issue here. We're pairing the very young with the very old and it's what's causing the problem.
Sadly many of the old folks at Sams have devastating brain diseases, are at the end of life and many will die relatively soon to be replaced by others. This has got to be one tough job and should be left to professionals like nurses and should be well paid positions. The stress of theses jobs takes its toll, as it would on any of us, and it's why families leave their members there. We don't want to pay much, so homes like Sams hire very young women/girls because obviously it's a lower paid position. It shouldn't be. Young girls or teens are not what you want in these positions. These are positions that deal with depression, death, disease, helplessness and should be relatively well paid.
