Based on an arrest affidavit accessed by NBC affiliate WTVJ, the event occurred on Friday at North Shore Medical Center in Miami. The affidavit indicates that Green’s mother had been admitted to the hospital on May 5 due to shortness of breath. Her condition declined, resulting in a transfer to the ICU.

On Friday, Green reportedly called her son and daughter to come to the hospital because her mother’s health continued to deteriorate. Green and other witnesses were in the room when the defendant allegedly said “I’m pulling out” and removed the intubation from the patient.

An alarm went off and hospital staff rushed into the room to help the victim but Green told them to stop and said she “wanted her mother to go in peace,” the affidavit reportedly said. The mother died shortly thereafter.

Green reportedly left the hospital but cops with the Miami-Dade County Sheriff’s Office arrested her at her home.
