Travis Perkins, indicted in a Federal Drug Case involving himself, the wife of the former Pocahontas Police Chief and others has been found dead in Pocahontas. Perkins was expected to be in court this week to change his plea in the case.
Arkansas State Police Investigators are only saying that Perkins was found dead Monday inside his apartment and that Perkins did not die of a self-inflicted wound or natural causes.
Travis Perkins was 34 years old and was indicted along with seven other people in a federal drug probe in Randolph County. Perkins was charged with Manufacturing and Possessing Methamphetamine.
The Arkansas State Police has not made any arrest but stated that they have several persons of interest in the case.
