Agrand jury will investigate the death of an inmate at the Douglas County Jail.
Trista Schaefer, 36, needed emergency medical care shortly after 1:30 p.m. Wednesday. Corrections staff assisted her until Omaha Fire Department personnel took over.
Schaefer was taken to the Nebraska Medical Center, where she died.
“We’d like to express our sincere condolences to Trista’s loved ones,” said Mike Myers, director of the Douglas County Department of Corrections.
A grand jury investigation is required by law.
