EASTLAKE, Ohio - A 20-year-old Ohio man who made headlines across the country after he was accused of beating a teen he said was raping a 5-year-old child, has died.
WJW in Cleveland reports that the coroner confirmed Adams' death. A GoFundMe page for Ricky Adams said he was found unresponsive in his bed by his girlfriend.
Adams spoke with WJW in March after he was arrested for beating a teen he said was assaulting a child. "I kinda went into a rage and started beating up the 17-year-old," Adams said.

*sigh* The Almighty State has ceased prosecuting, and started persecuting.
Does anyone know what happened to the 17 yo he beat up?
I have no words for the people that participated in this man’s arrest.
It is beyond my comprehension how any Christian or Jew could possibly vote for a Democrat. It is the functional equivalent of buying the rope and building the gallows with which they will hang you.
wrong thread. don’t know how that happened
...we only prosecute uh, persecute those who defend our society.
Unless they are the State's hired muscle, then they can do no wrong. Ever.
found unresponsive in his bed by his girlfriend.
I guess he should have asked to see the sexual predator’s ID before took care of business.
The rapist deserves something far worse than a beating. The rapist should also be tried as an adult.
My guess is we’ll never know anything about the rapist. Illegal, crime history, etc.
We haven’t had a “Justice System” since the 60s.
We have a badly-broken “Legal System”.
Too true.
Answering my own question:
The pervert was charged with rape, no name released because he was 17. I wonder how his going to trial will play out with the only adult witness now dead. I would guess the state will decide to drop charges or *maybe* go for a quick plea bargain.
Except it is not by his girlfriend, right?
I see what you did there.
We really have reached a point where you can’t really claim you are a real American Patriot if you aren’t in prison.
Rearranged a bit, his girlfriend found him unresponsive in bed. Still works. LOL
He should have been given the keys to the city.
The promise of free stuff often drives rationality out the window.
“I have no words for the people that participated in this man’s arrest.”
Police...the dog shooters with badges?
I am shocked that after reading 19 comments below that NO ONE is curious how the hero of this story died? Is no one curious how a 20 year old is found dead of apparent natural causes? To me THAT is the point of the story, but no explanation from the author. AMAZING. What has happenend to journalism?
