Authorities said Greysi Monroy-Lohuiz, 52, and Lianet Sosa-Monroy, 26, live with the 58-year-old victim “as a family” and are his caregivers.
An exact incident address was redacted from a Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office arrest report, but a listed police grid indicates that it happened in the unincorporated Leisure City area.
Deputies said the victim and Sosa-Monroy “had a disagreement over the mail that arrived at the residence” at around 5 p.m., causing Sosa-Monroy to begin “screaming at the victim for (an) unknown reason.”
Sosa-Monroy “then pushed the victim and began hitting the victim with a closed fist in his upper body,” the report states.
Deputies said as Sosa-Monroy struck the man “several times,” Monroy-Lohuiz joined in and “began striking the victim as well.”
The report states that a witness “screamed” at the two to “stop hitting” the man and the women “went inside the residence and continued to scream at the victim.”
The witness later told deputies that the women were seen “striking the victim on his back as he’s walking away from them” and said she saw Sosa-Monroy “using a closed fist.”
Deputies said the two declined to speak with them and asked for an attorney.
A judge found probable cause Thursday to charge both women with abuse of an elderly or disabled adult and ordered that they be held on a $1,000 bond, according to jail records.
