About the episode

Ruth Pasley was 85 years old when she died, on New Years Eve, 2017. She lived in a nursing home, and a court appointed guardian controlled her affairs. Her grandchildren found out she died six months later. It took weeks to discover where she was buried. Cherri Gregg (@CherriGregg) joins the podcast with the story of what happened to Ruth Pasley, the cracks in the guardianship system, and how Ruth Pasley and her family slipped through those cracks. Read Cherri's reporting on this story at KYWNewsradio.com Cherri hosts the KYW Original Podcast "Flashpoint." You can listen to new episodes HERE or find it wherever you get your podcasts.
