HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A Hutchinson Correctional Facility inmate, being held for crimes in NE Kansas, was formally charged on Thursday in connection with a July 2014 attack on a prison contract worker.
Steven Stumpner, 28, was charged with rape and aggravated sexual battery. The state alleges he forced a contract worker for the prison into sex without consent.
Stumpner is serving time in prison for two counts of aggravated robbery, two counts of theft and battery of a correction’s officer. The first four counts are for crimes in Johnson County, while the final conviction is out of Pawnee County.
The case will move to a waiver status docket on Jan. 7.
