RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — A Virginia woman has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of her husband, who was found fatally shot at their home.

News outlets report police on Tuesday announced the arrest of 46-year-old Lisa Ann Gilbert. She’s accused of killing 69-year-old Floyd Jacob Gilbert Jr. He was found dead Sunday at the couple’s Henrico County home.

Authorities didn’t immediately release details on a possible motive, and it’s unclear who called authorities to the home.

An investigation is ongoing. It’s unclear if Lisa Gilbert has a lawyer who can comment on her behalf.

Stories of neglect in care or unsanitary living situations have plagued several of Virginia’s nursing home facilities in recent years and data backs up a lapse in oversight by state agencies. With reform efforts underway, the Virginia Department of Health officials said they aim to adopt sanction criteria by the end of the year to rein in bad actors and get troubled facilities back on track. As of July, 58% of Virginia’s nursing homes were overdue for inspections and 68 of Virginia’s 289 nursing homes were found to have serious deficiencies, according to ProPublica. Several of the state’s flagged facilities with numerous deficiencies also had high staffing turnover rates. The issue has been salient among various healthcare spaces, including VDH.
