Flagler County Sheriff’s Office deputies investigating a welfare check at a Palm Coast home reported extensive garbage, cockroach droppings, sticky surfaces, and insects throughout the residence. Deputies said insects emerged from the elderly victim’s mattress and clothing, and described the mattress as heavily soiled with what appeared to be repeated urine and feces. The investigation involved Tashaye Brown and Nikolas Cummings and led to neglect charges involving a 1-year-old child and an elderly disabled man.

About the recording order

We make every effort to present files in chronological order. However, records may be received in separate releases, and some audio, video, and documents require significant time to review and identify accurately. For that reason, certain files may temporarily appear out of sequence. The order will be updated as additional records are received and the case archive is reviewed.

Flagler County Sheriff’s Office investigators arrested Tashaye Brown and Nikolas Cummings after a welfare check uncovered an infant and an elderly disabled man living in a home investigators described as deplorable. Authorities reported extensive cockroach infestation, feces, spoiled food, garbage, and other unsanitary conditions throughout the residence.
