Jоrdаn lives with his elderly mоther, Mаrthа, whо is 85 and mostly bedridden. Over the years, Martha has relied entirely on Jordan for food, medicine, and basic hygiene. Jordan, frustrated with being a caregiver and under financial pressure, begins to emotionally detach. One week, Jordan decides to stop helping Martha altogether, thinking “if nature takes its course, so be it.” Jordan does not feed Martha, ignores her pleas for water, and stops giving her vital heart medication. Martha grows weaker by the day. Jordan occasionally checks on her but takes no steps to aid her. After five days, Martha dies from a combination of dehydration and heart failure that could have been prevented with basic care. Meanwhile, Jordan’s friend, Alex, comes over during this time. He notices Martha lying on the floor, moaning. Jordan tells Alex, “She’s just being dramatic. She does this all the time.” Alex shrugs and walks past her. He kicks a blanket toward her with his foot and accidentally hits her face. Martha winces. Alex responds, “You’ll live,” and walks away. Later, it’s determined that Alex’s kick bruised Martha’s face but had no connection to her death. After Martha’s death, Jordan panics and calls another friend, Casey, who is a law student. Jordan tells Casey everything that happened. Casey rushes over, sees the condition of the apartment and Martha’s body, and says, “You’re in deep trouble — but maybe we can make it look like an accident.” Casey helps Jordan clean the apartment, removes all evidence of the medication bottles, and edits the call history on Jordan’s phone to delete any texts or voicemails from Martha asking for help. Casey also wipes the computer clean of any search history that could imply intent (e.g., “what happens if you don’t take heart medicine?”). When the police arrive the next morning, they find the scene cleaned, and Jordan claims Martha simply died in her sleep. Casey tells officers, “Martha was already dead when I arrived — I just came to support my friend.” Discuss all possible crimes for the following defendants: Jordan, Alex, and Casey.
