TSCI inmate death

June 4, 2025 (Tecumseh, Neb.) – Nicholas Bailey #83988, age 78, died today at the Tecumseh State Correctional Institution (TSCI).
Bailey’s sentence began on May 16, 2016. He was serving 25 to 45 years out of Lancaster County for two counts of sexual assault of a child.

While the cause of death has not yet been determined, Bailey was being treated for a medical condition. As is the case whenever an inmate dies in the custody of the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services (NDCS), a grand jury will conduct an investigation.
