A 45-year-old Nebraska Death Row Inmate died on Monday.
The Nebraska Department of Corrections says that Patrick Schroeder died at the Tecumseh State Correctional Institution.
Schroeder’s sentence began in 2006 on charges out of Pawnee County that included first degree murder and forgery. During Schroeder’s incarceration, he was sentenced to death on a charge of first degree murder – a crime that occurred in 2017, while he was incarcerated at TSCI.
The cause of death has not been determined, and as is the case whenever an inmate dies in the custody of the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services , a grand jury will conduct an investigation.
