A TBI investigation has resulted in the indictment of six employees at a Greeneville group home that special agents said were involved in ongoing abuse of a male patient who is intellectually disabled and non-verbal.

The agency report said the suspects were direct support professionals employed at Support Soluntions including a residential manager who was allegedly abusing the victim.

Kashira Jackson, Tyler Rodriguez, Bradley Arell and Deven Anderson are all charged with two counts of aggravated neglect of a vunerable adult, aggravated abuse and failure to report abuse or neglect.

Workers Shane Harrison and Christopher Owens are accused of not reporting the repeated abuse. All those named in the report were arrested and charged on Tuesday, according to the TBI.
