Pennsylvania Nursing Home Patient Care Worker Skips Court Sentencing - Again!
We discussed Henrietta Sprual and her outrageous abuse of a defenseless nursing home resident in our previous blog.
In an amazing lack of regard for her victim and our court system, Henrietta Sprual has skipped her court sentencing again. In fact, this is the second time in a month that she has done so. Judge Richard J. Hodgson issued a bench warrant for her arrest - the second warrant in a month.
Spraul is facing sentencing for her abuse of an 87 year old resident at Arden Court on December 7 and 8, 2007. Spraul repeatedly hit the man with a belt, causing multiple bruises on his elbow, shoulder, knee, and thigh. Her victim suffered from advanced Alzheimer's disease. Sprual pled guilty in October 2008 to charges of simple assault, recklessly endangering another person, possession of an instrument of crime, and making false statements to authorities. She was originally due in Court on January 7, 2009 and skipped that hearing.
She faces a maximum of seven years in prison.
