SHEBOYGAN, WI (WHBL) - He just can’t seem to keep himself out of trouble at the Sheboygan County Detention Center. Sheboygan County prosecutors leveled 32 year old Tyler Metzner of Sheboygan Wednesday with eight new charges - three for assault by prisoner and five for bail jumping.
The latest criminal complaint details what Sheboygan County Sheriff’s deputies heard from corrections officers regarding what Metzner did on December 11.
One officer told the deputy he was helping to watch Metzner as he walked around the center when Metzner allegedly spat at him. Following a shower, Metzner was again watched by the same corrections officer as he made his way back to his cell, and again the officer claims he was spat on by Metzner.
Another corrections officer told the deputy she was aiding another officer in feeding Metzner later in the day. She said they were using a blue impact bag to protect themselves, given Metzner has thrown items through the food shoot in the past. This time, the officer claims Metzner threw feces, hitting the officer in the thigh. Metzner reportedly apologized to the officer.
The deputy would meet Metzner in his cell, and he noticed there were feces smeared on the cell’s windows and walls. When asked, Metzner reportedly admitted that he did something wrong and asked if he would be charged. The deputy said he would, and when he began listing them Metzer is alleged to have said “Go f*&# yourself and go to the Masonic Temple and kill yourself.”
Metzner has a lengthy list of charges for his actions at the Sheboygan County Detention Center over the past few months. They include the damaging of surveillance cameras and sprinkler heads.
Metzner was taken into custody after he was charged for threatening numerous people at random in late September near Vreeke’s Tavern in Sheboygan with a switchblade.
Online court records also show that for some of the charges, Metzner has pleaded not guilty by reason of mental defect. Court proceedings are scheduled as well for other charges this upcoming week.
