Waupun Correctional Institution's warden, Randall Hepp, has resigned amid a federal smuggling investigation, lockdown, and multiple inmate deaths. A lockdown was enforced at Waupun, along with prisons in Green Bay and Stanley, due to a chronic lack of guards. At least 11 employees have been suspended in connection with the smuggling probe, and four inmates have died since June 2022. Brad Mlodzik, a former deputy warden at Waupun, will take over as warden on June 30.
