Judge dismisses Nebraska lawsuit filed by ex-prisoner sexually abused by guard

A former prison inmate sexually assaulted by a guard has lost his lawsuit against the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services alleging staff retaliated against him after he reported it.

The man, now 38, sued the Corrections Department and other prison officials for $150,000 in Douglas County District Court following the assault by Anthony Hansen at the Omaha Correctional Center in 2011.
