A Duchense County jail nurse accused of failing to help a 21-year-old inmate who died of severe dehydration will once again face a charge of negligent homicide.
A judge last February took the unusual step of tossing the case against Jana Clyde, finding there was not enough evidence for the case to move forward. Clyde had been accused of failing to intervene and possibly save the life of Madison Jensen, who died in December 2016 after being at the jail for four days.
But on Thursday, the Utah Court of Appeals reversed Judge Lyle Anderson’s decision.
