(June 11, 2008)—Carole Laura Jacobs has been charged with injury to the elderly, Robinson police said Wednesday, after paramedics reported that a 70-year-old man had lain unnoticed for hours overnight in the backyard of a foster care facility.
Paramedics were dispatched to the foster care home at 400 S. Old Robinson Rd. around 11:30 a.m. Tuesday, where they found the elderly facility resident in the backyard, where he evidently had been lying since the night before.
Because of the man’s condition, paramedics called police, who arrested Jacobs.
She was free on $50,000 bond Wednesday, police said.
The man’s identity and information about his condition was not immediately available.
Police say two other elderly residents were removed from the home as a result of the discovery.

As a mother, I can say that I would not want my child crucified for my mistakes as this girl is being done. God forgives us all. Sin is sin. One sin is no worse than another. Slander, malicious gossip as you are doing is sin. God forgives you too. This girl was not brought up in church as I know you weren't either. She didn't have a mom & dad and a loving home. She had this woman for a mother. She loved her mother even though she was abused by her. This girl has turned out very well considering how she was raised. She has married a local boy. You are hurting him as well as his family with all this unnecessary hatred. She called CPS out of concern for a child. She knew she could loose her friends, but she had been abused and she recognized something in that situation. Maybe it was bad judgement, but it was done for the right reasons. Maybe you too were abused and you don't recognize this as abuse. Let it go! Grow up! Pray for this girl as I will pray for you. Yes, I know all of you.
Are all of you that are throwing stones without sin yourself? Not that what happened was right. We just should not judge unless we are to be judged ourself.
Many of us remember the elderly Robinson business owner who was conned and stolen from by this woman. She must not be allowed to take advantage of anyone anymore.
