DETROIT (AP) - Autopsy results say a federal prosecutor from
Florida accused of flying to Michigan to have sex with a 5-year-old
girl committed suicide in prison by hanging himself from a shower
head with a bedsheet.
The Washtenaw County medical examiner says it found no other
injuries or diseases that would have caused the death of Assistant
U.S. Attorney John D.R. Atchison, of Gulf Breeze, Fla.
Atchison was arrested at Detroit Metro Airport. Investigators
say he had been communicating online with an undercover sheriff's
detective posing as the fictitious girl's mother and arranged for
him to have sex with the child.
He was charged with three felonies and was being held at the
federal prison in Milan, where he was found unresponsive last
Friday.
