LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – An inmate who went missing from a Lincoln corrections facility earlier this year was arrested Wednesday.

Jordana Kelley-Nelson, 26, was taken into custody and booked into the Hall County Jail in Grand Island.

Kelley-Nelson was sentenced to 15 months for accessory to a felony out of Buffalo County and two years for possession of methamphetamine out of Adams County.

She started her sentence in June at the Community Correction Center in Lincoln.

Kelley-Nelson left the correction center without prior approval on January 16.
