COWETA COUNTY, GA — A former employee of a Coweta County personal care home has been arrested on multiple counts of elder exploitation.

The Coweta County Sheriff’s Office said 63-year-old Ann Williams Cowan was arrested following an investigation into allegations involving residents at Corinth Road Personal Care Home.

Investigators said they believe Cowan co-owned the facility, but she is no longer employed there.

According to the sheriff’s office, the investigation began after a complaint from a family member of a former resident.

Among the allegations, investigators say Cowan failed to immediately assist a resident after seeing him fall and hit his head.

Authorities also allege she placed medication out of reach of a wheelchair-bound resident.

Investigators further claim Cowan watched and recorded a resident as he fell without helping him.

The sheriff’s office said additional charges are possible as the investigation continues.
