Caregiver accused of abusing nearly 2 dozen at-risk adults at Clayton Co. unlicensed care facility

Officials said Robinson was cited by Code Enforcement for operating a business without a license at 336 Sir Richard Court. Code Enforcement said there had not been enough evidence to condemn the property.

On July 10, the Department of Community Health executed a wellness check at the unlicensed personal care home on Richard Court.

During the visit, they found 16 men living under Robinson’s care, all of whom were either senior citizens or individuals with diminished capacity and mental health issues.

According to the DCH, Robinson was prepping food, handing out medications, and providing housing. Adult Protective Services relocated all the residents to legitimate care facilities.

After conducting a search warrant on the property, Clayton County authorities found deplorable living conditions, including a severe bedbug infestation, untreated infections, and residents with needs beyond the capabilities of a personal care home. Multiple residents required hospitalization, police said.
