Georgia Grandmom indicted on charges of starving grandson to death

ALBANY, Ga. (AP) – Authorities say an Albany grandmother who was indicted on a murder charge in the 2014 death of her grandson has turned herself in.

WALB-TV reports that Symanthia Price was booked into the Dougherty County Jail at 12:30 a.m. Tuesday.

On Feb. 10 a grand jury indicted Price on a murder charge in connection with the May 2014 death of 10-year-old Brandon Price.

Prosecutors say Symanthia Price failed to feed her grandson properly or get him medical care for pneumonia and injuries, resulting in the boy’s death, according to the report.

It wasn’t immediately clear if Price had an attorney.
