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.
