LINCOLN, Neb. -- The Nebraska Department of Correctional Services announces, Thursday, subject-matter experts from the Virginia Department of Corrections are scheduled to arrive Thursday to lead the Critical Incident Review of the escapes from Lincoln Correctional Center on June 10, 2016.

The review team will look at the factors leading up to the escape of the two inmates, the actions taken by staff in response to the escape, and overall security practices at the facility. The recommendations from the review will be used to ensure the correct actions are taken to prevent further security breaches.

The team will be led by Warden Rodney Younce and Assistant Warden Anthony Scott from the Virginia DOC, and will include six staff from NDCS.

“NDCS will benefit from having a team led by security experts from a different correctional system review the significant incident,” Scott Frakes, NDCS director said. “Virginia’s Director, Harold Clarke, reached out and offered the help of his staff. I’m grateful to Director Clarke and his staff for their support in ensuring we fully understand what happened, and what must be fixed to ensure this does not happen again,” Frakes said.
