A Knoxville woman is facing charges of aggravated neglect of her 74-year-old bedridden father after he arrived at a hospital with bone-exposing wounds.
For context, the case centres around 42-year-old Misty McDaniel, whose elderly father was admitted to Blount Memorial Hospital with severe wounds exposing muscle and bone on January 2, 2026.
At the time, it was also determined that McDaniel’s father had a blood sugar level of more than 600 alongside bed sores and “extensive” pressure ulcers at multiple places on his body.
