Woman in vegetative state for 14 years gives birth after being raped at Phoenix nursing home
 

PHOENIX --
Authorities in Arizona are investigating the rape of a female patient in a vegetative state inside of a nursing facility.

The woman stunned workers when she went into labor, because they didn't know she was pregnant.

The woman has been in a vegetative state at the Hacienda Skilled Nursing Facility in Phoenix for at least 14 years after a near-drowning incident.

"None of the staff were aware that she was pregnant until she was pretty much giving birth," a nursing facility employee told KPHO.

"How were they alerted to the fact that she was going into labor?" asked KPHO reporter Briana Whitney.

"From what I've been told she was moaning. And they didn't know what was wrong with her," the employee said.

Adult Protective Services said that they immediately dispatched a team to conduct health and safety checks on all members of the living facility after hearing about the incident.

The Arizona Department of Health says they are actively working with local law enforcement in their criminal investigation.

Sources say the patient required around the clock care, and many people had access to her room.

Hacienda officials said male employees are now required to have a female employee with them before entering a female patient's room.

Sources say the woman had no way to defend herself from the incident, and no way to communicate that she was pregnant.

Hacienda's website says they provide healthcare services to more than 2,500 people each year.

I think it was Mr. Potato Head that did it :2 cents:

I saw this News story, that’s fucked up, poor woman was raped, so sad to see. SMH medical system

I saw this too earlier. Holy shit - that's fucked up. That is seriously fucked up.

They'll find him. They will do a DNA test and then cross reference it with all of the men who worked there from 6 - 12 months ago.....

Thankfully everyone will voluntarily provide a DNA sample - and anyone who doesn't (for whatever reason) will be accused of rape?

Either way...seriously fucked up situation.

I see what you did there :thumbsup

Basic ethics dictate not to go beyond sodomy with unconscious women ...

Vegan rape IRL

So the baby came out black?

Seems like there's more malpractice to this story and it's a lot of CYA

How in the world does a woman who is receiving round the clock care go a full term with NO ONE NOTICING that she was pregnant??? That defies belief.

She's been chronically vegetative for 14 years - no way she's 300 pounds. The woman is living on a paste being fed into her stomach, probably rail thin, and yet, no one notices a baby bulge huh?

Police should be investigating the people that were covering up for the rapist in addition to the guy who did the deed imo

You people are nuts.

The fact that she was moaning during labor says she is still there mentally.

She probably enjoyed the company of this mystery male and is happy to have had a baby.

Moaning during labor (and contractions for that matter) is what doctors refer to as a "reflex action." Reflex actions do not require any consciousness.

You're retarded af. A woman in a vegetative state for over a decade happy to have a kid she won't raise? Just for the pain? While being a vegetable?

You dumb af bro. Seem like you trying to justify rape.

yeah it's funny... wtf iz wrong wit u??? :Oh crap :disgust that rest home has always been bad
