James Ike Hubbard
James Hubbard, 23, of Auburn, died on August 15, 2014, at the Lee County Detention Center in Alabama, where he had been held while serving the first of three weekends for a DUI conviction. Per the sheriff's office, deputies saw him as intoxicated and placed him in a holding cell near booking to sober up, and sources say he was later found unresponsive and pronounced dead that night. His mother, Pam Hubbard, describes him as a good person who did not always make the best choices, and says paramedics found him already dead and that his autopsy report was vague, with unexplained injuries and missing surveillance video left unanswered. The Lee County coroner says the cause is pending toxicology and tissue tests, and the State Investigation Bureau is investigating.
