BEATRICE, Neb. (AP) — Two more former workers accused of abusing residents at a Nebraska center for developmentally disabled adults have entered pleas to abuse charges.

Local media in Beatrice  says Cody Creek and Carmen Yates pleaded no contest to attempted abuse of a vulnerable adult on Monday in Gage County District Court.

Prosecutors dropped a count of strangulation against Creek. They’d already dropped a theft charge against Yates.

They were among five workers charged after an investigation last year at the Beatrice State Development Center.

Matthew Johnson pleaded guilty to two counts of abuse of a vulnerable adult last Friday. Cameron Barnes, of Fairbury, pleaded no contest to two abuse charges on Thursday.

Matthew Pangborn faces a July 9 trial.
