inmate

The Laramie County Sheriff's Office says a post circulating on Facebook claiming the jail had its first case of COVID-19 is erroneous.

A 48-year-old inmate at the Wyoming Medium Correctional Institution in Torrington has died from an apparent suicide.

Miller died of a long-term illness, which spokesman Mark Horan did not detail in a news release.

An autopsy has been ordered.

The sheriff's office has thus far declined to detail the nature of the medical emergency suffered by Griffiths.

The man was taken to Memorial Hospital of Sweetwater County, where he was pronounced dead.

An autopsy has been ordered per departmental policy, Horan said.

Beginning in February 2004, he was required to register as a sex offender for the remainder of his life.

The facility was searched, but Kennah was not found.

Uden was born in Denver, Colorado.
