June 15, 2023 – The charges against the ex-employees, 40-year-old Jessica Schroeder and 27-year-old Amanda Caban, date back to an incident last June in which an inmate at Wildwood was allegedly found to be in possession of controlled substances.
Charging documents say Dylan Wright — who is serving a decades-long sentence for robbery and assault — attacked and injured a correctional officer who seized the drugs from him at the pretrial facility. Wright was at Wildwood for three days before he was transferred to Spring Creek Correctional Center in Seward, according to DOC spokesperson Betsy Holley. The correctional officer, Andrew Kerr, was sent to Central Peninsula Hospital with injuries to his hand.
At the time, Wright was charged on four misdemeanor counts. The state says it then began an investigation into the case.
A separate set of charging documents, filed last week, says Wright and Schroeder were found to be in possession of suboxone. A spokesperson for the state Department of Law, Patty Sullivan, said Schroeder was found to be passing suboxone to Wright at Wildwood.
