Employee of a senior care facility is accused of raping an elderly Alzheimer’s patient.

The employee of a senior care facility is accused of raping an elderly Alzheimer’s patient in  Minnesota. He was busted sexually assaulting an 83-year-old woman, who has Alzheimer's disease, when her son checked in on her via webcam Monday night, according to reports.

The son said he remotely witnessed 52-year-old Olabamidele Olumide Bewaji caress and undress his mother before sexually assaulting her twice in her room at the Pillars of Mankato Senior Living home, the Mankato Free Press reported, citing a court complaint.

He told investigators that he used a speaker on the camera to demand Bewaji stop, according to the complaint. Bewaji eventually stopped, but the son noted he did so slowly.

Olabamidele Olumide Bewaji, 52, was charged with two counts of felony third-degree criminal sexual conduct in Blue Earth County Court.

According to a criminal complaint, the 83-year-old victim’s son was monitoring his mother’s room via web-based cameras when he witnessed the assault.  His mother suffers from Alzheimer’s, he told investigators, and he typically uses the camera to check that she is well.

The complaint says the son saw Bewaji caressing his mother before undressing her and sexually assaulting her as she laid in bed.  Bewaji then climbed into the bed and sexually assaulted the woman a second time, says the complaint.

Police found the victim partially dressed and said she was confused as to what happened, the paper reported.

Bewaji, who works at the facility, initially denied the sexual assault, the Southern Minnesota News reported, citing the criminal complaint, but he later admitted to the sexual abuse after learning investigators would conduct a search warrant.

Bewaji also confessed that he had sex with the woman last month and understood that she was a vulnerable adult, the reports said. He claimed that the octogenarian had initiated the sexual acts.l
