Photos of naked elderly patients and child porn allegedly found on nurse's phone:

According to reports, the woman took photos at Kane McKeesport Community Living Center, an Allegheny County nursing home. She would send these photos to Ron Whittaker, who eventually reported her and therefore isn't facing any charges. Whittaker, however, was arrested earlier that year in October for allegedly assaulting Smith. The images show elderly patients in the care home 'in need of immediate care and private situations,' the complaint states. A video on Smith's phone also showed a nude patient allegedly undergoing a medical procedure.
