Carers left a severely autistic woman locked in a car alone while they went on a two-and-a-half hour shopping spree in the U.K
.
Sylvia Ezeorji, 47 and Veronica Howe, 52, were both care support workers for 58-year-old Claire McMullen, who suffers with autism, learning difficulties and does not speak.
.
She was found by police locked in a car in Chatham High Street on a hot day in July after concerned members of the public dialed 999 when they saw the vehicle rocking.
.
Howe, of Castle Road, Chatham, and Ezeorji, of Porters Avenue, Dagenham, have pleaded guilty to neglect. They were told by the court their actions showed “total disregard for a person’s life”.
.
Magistrates heard Ms McMullen is deemed a very vulnerable adult. She needs two-to-one care 24 hours a day as she is in danger of choking on food so she must be supervised at all times.
.
Ezeorji and Howe returned to the vehicle at about 4pm, two-and-a-half hours after they had abandoned her inside. Police were still on the scene and arrested the pair on suspicion of neglect.
.
Both were later charged and pleaded guilty at Medway Magistrates’ Court. Chairman of the bench, Veenod Rama, said: “This is an extremely serious case and you showed a total disregard for a person’s life.
.
There is no excuse, it was callous and selfish behaviour on a very vulnerable person.” Because of the seriousness of the case, their sentencing was sent to crown court as it can impose longer jail sentences. A date for their sentencing has not yet been fixed.

Lock them up.

Ok

Selfish woman. No single work ethics.

Good for them, don't know why parents are fond of locking people/kids up in cars. Even if it is for 5 minutes, don't do it because you may regret it later.

Lock them up but not for too long please.
The word lenghty as the OP used is scary

The victim should be grateful to God. If it's some people from one particular tribe in Waste Africa that kidnapped her, by now her spare parts would be available in Obomoso Human Spare Parts market.

Na wah

Wow their Legal system is different from ours. It has really developed.

They both pleaded guilty and the matter was transferred to a crown court for sentencing.

In Nigeria, even if an accused pleads guilty, the prosecution must prove his case beyond reasonable doubt. See the case if EVANS.

No wonder we have a slow court procedure.

NEWS!!!

Just the same way Nanny behaves here, they do their work without good work ethics, if they can do that outside they can do worse when she is at home.

Care work is one work that sure do need utmost professionalism and patience. .. some clients could be so annoying you would smack them if it were allowed.
Quick one:
Was working in vierra house (care home whose residents are largely Alzhemier patients) and a client; whom i had been mopping her body and left to get hot towel, let out a scream when i entered and threw a ceramic cup right at my fore head, 'out you stupid Ni*ga' she charged at me, I was in between confusion and anger, had to go to the nurse cos by now, I was bleeding. Had to include 'extreme caution' in her plan, gosh that was 2005! I done tay for this job!!!
Another client of mine had double personality, never believed it existed until then. He was extremely nice now and in the next minute feisty. ..God just thinking about him makes me wanna smack something

Thank God its all in the past now. The ladies were being unprofessional especially for a 2on1 client? Uk no go gree o

They way they work in Naija. Selfish women.

Eyes I know one of these women
Mrs Ezeorji

They think say na Nigeria?
They were paid to do their work.

11 pound per hour and they cant wait till closing time

mtcheeew..

Well this serves them right. They feel it's Nigeria where you do your work anyhow and break the law at every single opportunity you get, no work ethics, no regards for life and the people around you. In the UK you work for your money diligently and you obey there laws and work ethics there. But in naija here.... Omo this days people even see breaking and disregard for the law as their human right.
