   ST. JOSEPH, Mo. -- An accused sex-offender was found dead in his   
   cell in the Buchanan County Jail Tuesday morning. Sheriff Mike   
   Strong says jail staff discovered Michael Bozarth, 25, around 2   
   a.m.   
      
   Bozarth was in jail awaiting trial in November on three counts   
   of 1st degree statutory sodomy. In court documents, police say   
   he molested two children under the age of nine.   
      
   Bozarth has a long history of crimes involving sex, drugs and   
   violence: In July of 2005, Bozarth was convicted of sexual   
   misconduct, sentenced to 15 days in jail, and ordered to   
   register as a sex offender. Since then, he has pleaded guilty   
   and was sentenced to 252 days for loitering near a school   
   building. In June of 2007, he pleaded guilty for failing to   
   register as a sex offender. He was sentenced to five days in   
   jail, according to court records.   
      
   Authorities say there were only two people in the cell. Buchanan   
   County Sheriff Mike Strong called the death suspicious. He would   
   not comment on how Bozarth died. This is the first homicide in   
   the county jail on Strong's watch. He says the investigation is   
   ongoing.
