KSP: Wife Charged With Murder After Neglecting Husband

State police said a Manchester woman neglected her paralyzed husband so much that it ultimately caused his death.

Troopers said Amy Burkhart, 32, had been charged with murder.

According to investigators, she had been taking care of Charles Burkhart, Junior since a 2007 car accident that left him paralyzed.

Troopers said Amy had first been charged with criminal abuse after Charles was brought to the hospital January 13, 2015 in critical condition.

Investigators say he died two days later.

According to state police, an autopsy was done.

Troopers said Amy was arrested January 20 at her home on an upgraded charge of murder.
