A pedophile who murdered a 13-year-old girl after getting her pregnant has died in prison in an apparent suicide, officials said.

Jarvis Butts, 43, was found dead in his cell at the Charles Egeler Reception and Guidance Center in Jackson, Michigan on Wednesday.

He was just two weeks into a 35 to 60 year sentence for the murder of Na'Ziyah Harris.

Prison staff said they 'provided life-saving measures which were unsuccessful' and noted that state police are investigating Butts's death as a suicide.

He pleaded guilty to murdering Harris in January 2024 after impregnating her and prosecutors said he targeted the young girl after previously having children with her aunt.

Butts was also sentenced to ten to fifteen years for sexually assaulting other children.

Prosecutors said Butts groomed Harris for two years before murdering her, finding that he often sent her sexually explicit texts and grew close to her family.

In the weeks before the murder, Butts searched online for abortions and abortion pills.

An unsatisfying end, but at least he's gone.
