LINCOLN, Neb. -- A missing Nebraska inmate has been located across the border in Iowa.

26-year-old Keith Duckett, who had gone missing from the Community Corrections Center in Lincoln, was arrested Tuesday in Council Bluffs. He was then transported to the Pottawattamie County Jail.

Duckett disappeared on December 16, 2022 when he failed to return to CCC-L from his job in the community, NDCS officials said.

Duckett’s sentence started on April 19, 2021. He was sentenced to four to 10 years on charges out of Douglas County that include third-degree domestic assault, theft and possession of a deadly weapon by a prohibited person. He has a tentative release date of November 21, 2025 and was previously scheduled to have a parole hearing in February 2023.

CCC-L is one of two community custody facilities operated by NDCS. Community custody is the lowest custody level and the least restrictive facility. Inmates are allowed to participate in work opportunities, attend school and religious services with prior approval and without direct supervision.
