BATON ROUGE - A second person was convicted in the death of an elderly family member whom authorities said was left in "deplorable" living conditions.

Chasity Lewis withdrew her previous plea and pleaded guilty Thursday to charges of manslaughter and cruelty to the infirmed.

With the negotiated plea came news that two others previously arrested in the death are no longer facing charges. According to court documents, Carl Lewis and Chira Lewis both had their charges dismissed.

Earlier this month, Carlnessa Butler withdrew her own not guilty plea and pleaded no contest. She was given a five-year sentence.
