I will treat my kids better, they do remember everything.

A Port St. Lucie man was arrested and charged with neglect of an elderly person after his 90-year-old mother was found emaciated and in urine-soaked clothes, an arrest affidavit released Sunday said.

Robert M. Rozenti, 68, of the 2000 block of Southeast Franciscan Street, was the sole provider for his mother and told police that he was appointed his mother’s power of attorney in 2006, the report said.

Early Saturday, the victim, Anna Chuboff was transported to Columbia Hospital after falling at the residence. Police were called to the hospital after the paramedics found her “unwashed, wearing clothing soaked in urine, severely underweight and emaciated,” the report said.

Police also noted that the shoes the victim had been wearing had not been removed for a long period of time and had “grown into her feet,” the report said. Her toenails had taken the shape of her shoes, police said in the report.

Chuboff told investigators that her son was “abusive to her verbally” but never hit her, the report said. She told police that she had not received medical attention for some time despite being diagnosed with diabetes and high blood pressure, the report states. At the time of questioning, she could not remember if she ate that day. Chuboff told police that she could not remember the last time she bathed and she routinely soils her clothing, the report said.
