Cindy Schulz-Juedes
FOND du LAC, WI (WSAU) – The woman accused of beating her cellmate to death last year has been ordered to undergo a mental competency exam after pleading ‘not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect.’.
Taylor L. Sanchez is accused of beating Cindy Schulz-Jeudes to death in July, 2024. The two had been sharing a cell at the Taycheedah Correctional Institution.
Schulz-Jeudes, from Wausau, was convicted of killing her husband, Kenneth, in 2006. Schulz-Jeudes had maintained that she was innocent until her death. She died from multiple blows to the head.
Sanchez entered her plea in Fond du Lac County Court on October 18. Judge Tricia Walker ordered the mental health evaluation last Wednesday.
Sanchez is currently being held in a secure mental health facility in Winnebago. She’s charged with first-degree intentional homicide.
Her trial is tentatively scheduled for July 21, 2025.
