Prisoner pleads no contest in connection with cellmate's brutal death at Wisconsin women's prison
- Taylor Sanchez, 29, pleaded no contest to killing her cellmate Cindy Schulz-Juedes at Taycheedah Correctional Institution in July 2023.
- In January 2024, Sanchez was charged with first-degree intentional homicide following the discovery of Schulz-Juedes’ severely injured body in the cell they occupied together almost two years prior.
- Investigators reported Sanchez stopped taking medication, heard voices telling her to kill, and believed Schulz-Juedes used her toothbrush to clean a toilet, leading to the attack.
- Sanchez faces a mandatory life sentence without parole for the homicide, with sentencing scheduled for July 28, and she was already serving sentences for battery related to Kenosha County.
- The case highlights mental health and violent incidents within the prison system, as Sanchez's plea acknowledges sufficient evidence though it does not admit guilt.
