Drake's body has been sent to the medical examiner for autopsy. Drake was expected in Miller County Circuit Court Tuesday to answer sexual assault charges of a detainee in his custody. Drake allegedly had sex with an inmate at the Miller County Jail where he worked as a detention officer. His death remains under investigation.
