Female Officer Gets Knocked Out By Male Inmate (Video)

inmate knocks out female corrections officer

Footage has been released showing a female officer from Marathon County Jail getting knocked out by a male inmate while officers attempted to collect food trays after lunch in cell block C.

Marathon County Sheriff’s Department released CCTV surveillance video of 20-year-old prisoner Frederick Morris getting combative with the officers and knocking one female corrections officer out cold.

The officers entered cell block C when Fredrick becomes enraged. There is not sound so there is no telling if there was any previous vocal provocation. Fredrick can be seen punching Julie Christensen sending her to the ground then running around the cell block trying to avoid other officers.

Since the release of the video, many are saying the Jail is to blame for being understaffed and now an independent jail security panel made up of marathon county citizens have been discussing ways to improve the facility.

Morris is charged with two counts of battery by a prisoner and one charge of aggravated battery.
