An Australian Federal Police (AFP) employee has been refused bail over the alleged manslaughter of his mother, who prosecutors say suffered an “undignified and agonising death”. Phillip Joseph Thompson, who is also a former New South Wales Police officer, and his brother David Thompson were charged with the manslaughter of their mother in September last year. Court documents allege their 73-year-old mother Shirley Thompson was bedridden and “lying in a state of filth” when paramedics attended the family home last year. The trio allegedly lived together in Greystanes in Sydney’s west. On Thursday, a hearing at Fairfield Local Court was told Ms Thompson had developed serious bed sores that had in turn caused blood poisoning. She presented to Blacktown Hospital severely dehydrated and malnourished and, despite efforts by hospital staff, died a week later in the Palliative Care Unit. Police prosecutor Sergeant Lachlan Kirby told the court the woman suffered “a very undignified and agonising death”. “The victim was suffering from bruising to the hips and legs, laying naked in bed on a urine-soaked towel,” court documents say. “The victim had faeces covering her bottom and several large ulcerated pressure sores.”
