Amanda Lee Koerner, incident at the Ohio Reformatory for Women

Amanda Lee Koerner, a 41-year-old white female with blonde hair and green eyes, who stands 4 feet 9 inches tall and weighs 143 pounds, was arrested by the Madison County Sheriff on charges of involuntary manslaughter, reckless homicide, corruption of another with drugs, and trafficking in drugs - Schedule I, II.

 The recent incident at the Ohio Reformatory for Women in Marysville, captured by body camera footage, presents a disturbing scene that underscores the dangers inmates can face even within the presumed safety of a controlled environment. The footage shows Lieutenant Thierno Bah driving a small utility vehicle, commonly known as a gator, through the prison yard—an action that resulted in the injury of 40-year-old inmate Amanda Koerner.

This unfortunate event occurred as two officers, including Lt. Bah, were responding to a fight within the prison’s premises. The urgency of their response led to Bah driving the utility vehicle onto the sidewalk, colliding with a chair, swerving, and ultimately striking Ms. Koerner. Although other inmates nearby managed to avoid the vehicle, Koerner was less fortunate, sustaining injuries for which she later received medical treatment at Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.
