An apparent suicide is under investigation at the Mohave County Adult Detention Center in downtown Kingman. Inmate Rylee Adam Campo, 27, Kingman was discovered about 8:00 p.m. Saturday.
“A detention officer found an inmate in his closed cell that had apparently hung himself,” a news release stated. “Detention officers and medical staff initiated life saving efforts.”
Sheriff’s office spokeswoman Anita Mortensen said Campo was rushed to Kingman Regional Medical Center where he was later pronounced dead. “The initial investigation shows no reason to suspect foul play,” she said.
The incident remains under investigation and an autopsy will be conducted to determine the official cause of death. Campo was booked into jail on May 7 for a mix of burglary, theft and drug charges.
