CRESTVIEW, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say an inmate in the Okaloosa
County Jail has apparently killed himself.

Corrections director Larry Caskey says 30-year-old Russell Bauer IV was found dead Tuesday afternoon with a piece of bedsheet tied
around his neck. Officers tried to revive the man but were unsuccessful. Bauer had been booked into the jail Friday on child molestation charges.

Bauer and his wife had operated a daycare from their Crestview
home in 2008 when authorities say Bauer sexually assaulted two
girls, ages 5 and 6.

Officials say Bauer had not been under suicide watch at the time
of his death.

I never want hear that anyone died, but sounds like this guy got what he deserved.  I have to work, so my son goes to daycare….what a horrible thought of a child being harmed while in the “care” of someone I trust. What is this world coming to?
