O'Neill native Jerry Yelli, age 60, died Thursday, Feb. 6, 2025, at the Nebraska Reception and Treatment Center in Lincoln. Yelli's sentence began on November 19, 2018. He was serving a sentence of nine years to 17 years and one month for charges out of Holt and Madison Counties that included possession of meth with intent to deliver, driving under a revoked license and terroristic threats. While the cause of death has not yet been determined, Yelli 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.  (0) COMMENTS
