Elderly Colorado Woman With Dementia Mauled to Death by Dogs; Daughter Charged

In a tragic incident in Colorado, an elderly woman suffering from dementia was fatally mauled by dogs at her home. The woman's daughter, Alexis Bianca Hodge, has been charged with negligence in connection to the death. The incident occurred when the woman, left alone with the dogs, was attacked, leading to fatal injuries.

According to reports, Hodge allegedly left her mother, who was in advanced stages of dementia, unattended with the family's dogs.
