Martinsville -- A physician indicted by a Morgan County grand jury in the death of his live-in girlfriend is free on bond.
Sondra Pressler died in November. Dr. John Reynolds, the county's health officer in charge of signing her death certificate, is charged in her death, according to WTHR (Channel 13), The Star's news-gathering partner.
"A grand jury looked at the case, heard evidence, and today (Friday) they returned with indictments charging Doctor Reynolds with four counts of neglect of a dependent," Morgan County Prosecutor Steve Sonnega said, WTHR reported.
Authorities say Pressler was living with Reynolds when she died, and investigators believe he was acting as her doctor, WTHR reported.
