Death of Hardel Sherrell: Beltrami Co. jail nurse charged with manslaughter

Michelle Rose Skroch, a nurse at Beltrami County Jail, has been charged with second-degree manslaughter for neglecting Hardel Sherrell's medical needs, leading to his death in September 2018.
The criminal complaint states that Skroch ignored clear signs of Sherrell's serious health condition, failing to perform necessary assessments during her shift.
On September 2, 2018, Sherrell was found unresponsive after Skroch had only briefly interacted with him earlier that day, contradicting her claims of improvement.
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison announced the charges against Skroch based on an investigation by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.
