The grandparents of a 14-year-old girl found in a “skeletal state” have been charged in connection with her death.
Jerry Stone, 75, and Donna Stone, 76, have been charged with child neglect resulting in death, MetroNews, WCHS-TV and WSAZ report. The girl’s mother, Julie Anne Stone Miller, 49, faces the same charges.
The charges come a month after the teen, Kyneddi Miller, was found “emaciated to a skeletal state” on the bathroom floor of her West Virginia home on April 17, according to a criminal complaint previously obtained by PEOPLE. According to the Boone County Sheriff’s Office, Kyneddi went into cardiac arrest.

Kyneddi “had been unable to function independently for a reported four to five days due to her physical condition,” the complaint states, adding that she had an uncontrolled eating disorder. She “hasn’t eaten for months” and her health has been “deteriorating for months or years,” it said.
Jerry and Donna “failed to exercise a minimum level of care to ensure the teen’s physical safety and health,” according to a new criminal complaint filed May 20, according to WSAZ.

“The details in this case are deeply disturbing and difficult to understand,” Boone County Sheriff Chad Barker previously told PEOPLE.
According to Barker, Jerry, Donna, Julie and Kyneddi all lived together. The investigation also found that Kyneddi had not attended school in nearly four years, according to the original criminal complaint.
It is unclear whether the suspects have hired attorneys to speak on their behalf.
