Adam Bond
Adam Bond, 33, was held at Tucker prison in Arkansas when he was found dead in his cell. His mother, Shirley Lyons, said a prison chaplain told her in an early-morning call that he had ingested something, and that his body was sent for autopsy while the Arkansas State Police investigate. His sister, Robin Berryman, has spoken publicly about their family's grief, and relatives started a fundraiser to help cover his cremation and funeral. A news report linked his death to suspected synthetic drug use, but no cause of death has been established, and his family has questioned how drugs reached the prison.
Cause of death, as reported: Cause not yet determined. A prison chaplain told his mother that Adam Bond had ingested something, and the article links his death to suspected synthetic drug use, but the cause has not been established and the State Police are investigating.
Reported by: Tucker prison chaplain (as relayed by his mother) (the agency that held him); Shirley Lyons (mother) (family or their lawyers); the article's reporting (reporters).
