00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:04,520
Speaker 1: Crime alrd hourly update Breaking back Sydney Center. The body

2
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: of a seventy one year old man reported missing from

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: a Miami nursing home has been found inside the facility,

4
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 1: stuffed inside a storage closet. Ellen at Tienn, a retired

5
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: chef from Haiti, was checked into the nursing and rehab

6
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:20,760
Speaker 1: facility after suffering an aneurism. At Tien had already been

7
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 1: diagnosed with dementia and suffered two previous strokes. The aneurism

8
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: brought on a severe loss of mobility and cognitive function.

9
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,520
Speaker 1: At Tan's family was hopeful Ellen would regain some independence

10
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 1: through rehabit North Dade. Three weeks into his stay, a

11
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 1: staff member calls at Tian's family, claiming the seventy one

12
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: year old signed himself out, walked out of the facility

13
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 1: and never returned. The family immediately knew something was wrong.

14
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 2: We just got the causing that he went missing. It

15
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 2: was trying to get it at a bottom of it, and

16
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 2: they told us that he signed an AMA, which means

17
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 2: he refused medical help. And we were asking for the

18
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 2: documents and to see his signature, and they refused to

19
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 2: let a seat.

20
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 3: They kept on saying he signed him himself out and

21
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 3: that he didn't want anything to do with his family,

22
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 3: but that's impossible because he has demensia.

23
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: Etien's family reports him missing and desperately search for him

24
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: alongside Miami Dade Police. They hand out flyers, ask businesses

25
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: for surveillance footage, and do multiple foot searches with no

26
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 1: sign of the beloved father, uncle, and grandfather. Twelve days

27
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: into their fruitless search, the family receives an anonymous phone

28
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: call letting them know a body was found at North

29
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 1: Dade rehab and nursing. The family rushes to the nursing

30
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,119
Speaker 1: home and receives grim news. Ellen at Tienne was found

31
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: stuffed in a storage closet by a staff member. His

32
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: body is so badly decomposed that police are only able

33
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: to identify at ten from his North Dade wristband with

34
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 1: his name on it.

35
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 3: He decomposed and died alone in there, suffering. It just

36
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 3: doesn't make sense.

37
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, I never got a chance to see him, and

38
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: I didn't know that time that I saw him would

39
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 2: be the last time that I would see my grandfather.

40
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: The family is now questioning how this could have happened

41
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: and why the North Dade staff has been so uncooperative.

42
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: They also have extreme concern for other patients.

43
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 3: We still have to find out if he was put

44
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 3: in the closet or if we just don't know, and

45
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 3: I don't want that to happen to another patient.

46
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: Police are still awaiting results from an autopsy to determine

47
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: how Etienne died and if anyone should face charges. The

48
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: family just hoping for answers. More crime and justice news

49
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:28,440

54
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,520
