Text: In support of the charge of assault by a confined person, the prosecution offered certified copies of the trial docket for the first degree murder charge for which Alford was in custody at the time of the assault. The documents demonstrated that after an initial hearing on the complaint, Alford was held without bond. Several entries reference Alford's being in the custody of the SCSO, which we understand to mean the Sarpy County sheriff's office. In particular, an entry dated December 13, 2007, states, [Alford] is remanded into the custody of the SCSO pending further hearing. The judge's minutes continue through May 30, 2008, without a final disposition of the felony charge. In the exhibit for the jury, the State redacted all references to the nature of the charge.
