COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

An inmate at the Fulton Reception & Diagnostic Center died this week after he was in custody for just over a month.

Missouri Department of Corrections said Timothy Poore, 72, died on Wednesday.

Poore was serving a six-year sentence for sexual abuse and sodomy charges from Callaway County, according to the department.

The department said in a news release that the 72-year-old started his sentence on June 25.

Online court records show that Poore pleaded guilty on June 20 to one count of statutory sodomy with a person under 14 years old and one count of first-degree sexual abuse with a victim under 14 years old.

An autospy will not be done, according to the release.
