Police said accused murderer Israel Keyes was found dead in his Alaska jail cell on Dec. 2, 2012 in an apparent suicide. Keyes was charged in the death of 18-year-old Samantha Koenig, a barista who was abducted from a coffee kiosk on February 2012. He was later arrested in Texas after using the victim's debit card. Authorities said Keyes was also linked to at least seven other possible slayings in three other states.
