Eben Kaneshiro, a veteran MMA fighter, who was arrested and charged with several counts of first-degree sex abuse and first-degree sodomy involving a boy under the age of 12 last week has died of an apparent suicide.

According to KTVZ, Kaneshiro was in jail being held on a $50,000.00 bail. On Sunday, early in the morning, officers found Kaneshiro unresponsive in his cell. After they were unable to revive him he was pronounced dead at the scene.
