Hospital Removes Toilet Seat From Womans Rear After Sitting in Bathroom for 2 Years

Sheriff recommends charging boyfriend in toilet case

Ness County Sheriff Bryan Whipple said Thursday he asked the county attorney to file charges against Kory McFarren for mistreatment of a dependent adult. The county attorney will decide whether any charges are brought.

McFarren did not answer his door Thursday, but later called The Associated Press and said he was done giving media interviews. He said he had done nothing wrong.
