Martha Bell’s health appears to be failing. She was recently found guilty by a jury in the mis management and death of a resident, and the cover up that followed. She was sentenced to 4 years in prison. She hasn’t made it there yet.

Former nursing home administrator Martha Bell has managed to stave off her five-year federal prison sentence for at least five days.

Mrs. Bell, 60, of West Mifflin, was convicted of health care fraud and making false statements, and missed her date to report to a federal prison Monday, after being admitted late last week to Mercy Hospital with chest pains and numbness on one side of her body.

After she was discharged Tuesday, U.S. marshals immediately arrested Mrs. Bell and took her to the Allegheny County Jail.

However, the next day, she again complained of chest pains. That time, Mrs. Bell was taken to an undisclosed hospital, where she remains under secure guard with no access to visitors.
