A High Desert State Prison sergeant is recovering from injuries suffered during an unprovoked attack by an inmate Monday night. The assault occurred at 6 p.m. Oct. 14 after staff completed a clothed body search of inmate Bernard L. Wildee. Staff found contraband and ordered the inmate to submit to handcuffs. Instead, Wildee repeatedly struck a correctional sergeant in his face and head. Responding staff used physical force to subdue Wildee. Two custody staff members were taken to a local hospital for treatment. The sergeant, a nearly 17-year veteran of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, suffered a concussion, three lacerations to his right eye and bruises to his face. He is at home recovering. A correctional officer, a five and a half-year veteran of CDCR, was also taken to a hospital and treated for minor injuries to his right knee and right hand incurred while using physical force to stop Wildee's attack. He has returned to work. Wildee, 39, was received from Sacramento County on Sept. 12, 2005 with a 26-years-to-life sentence for being an ex-felon in possession of a firearm, his third strike. Wildee served a prior commitment from Sacramento County for voluntary manslaughter and assault with a deadly weapon and a 1995 conviction from Solano County for battery on a peace officer.
