TEXARKANA, Ark. (October 7, 2009)--A former Miller County, Ark. jailer who was facing a charge of sexual misconduct with female inmates has been found shot to death in Texas.
The body of Patrick Drake, 55, was found outside a tire store in Bowie County about 8 a.m. Tuesday with a gunshot wound to the head, authorities said.
Sheriff's Capt. Jeff Neal said it appears the wound was self-inflicted.
Drake was due in court Tuesday for a pretrial hearing on a third-degree sexual assault charge.
Drake was fired and arrested in December when allegations surfaced that he and another guard had inappropriate sexual contact with female inmates in November at the Miller County jail.
Drake had maintained his innocence at earlier court hearings and his attorney said he was prepared to take the case to trial. ..Source.. by KWTX.com
