Wood County prosecutors have charged a Nekoosa man with first-degree intentional homicide in the death of a 20-year-old disabled woman.
Samantha Roberts was a paraplegic who wasn’t able to speak.
Police were called to a home in Nekoosa last Friday where they found her unresponsive with a severe head injury.
43-year-old Paul M. Carter was taken into custody three days later.
Investigators say he had just moved in with the victim, but the two weren’t related.
