MADISON, Wis. (WFRV) – Authorities say time in prison just got longer for one Wisconsin inmate after being sentenced to an additional 33 months for physically assaulting a guard.
According to a release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Western District of Wisconsin, an inmate at the Federal Correctional Institution in Oxford was sentenced to an additional 33 months for attacking a guard in August 2024.
Officials say now 47-year-old Demetrius Brown attacked a guard on August 24, 2024, after the guard reportedly found contraband in his cell. The Guard is said to have suffered minor injuries in the attack.

At the sentencing hearing, the judge on the case said that causing injury to the guard and potentially jeopardizing the safety of other staff responding to the incident played a factor in the sentencing.
Brown pleaded guilty to the assault charge on June 9, 2025. The 33-month prison sentence will be served consecutively to the sentence he is already serving for a prior drug trafficking case.
