Man arrested in connection to Marshalltown death

Adam Younis, 36, was arrested Friday in connection to a death at the Marshalltown Residential Facility.

The body of Derek Jones, 31, was found shortly after 6 a.m. on Tuesday by facility staff.

Younis is charged with involuntary manslaughter and delivery of a controlled substance. He is being held at the Marshall County Jail.

Younis is in the work-release program operated by the Iowa Department of Corrections (DOC) and is under the supervision of the Second Judicial District Department of Correctional Services while living at the residential facility.

Jones was living there while on probation supervision.

Since the death occurred at a DOC facility, the investigation is being handled by the state Division of Criminal Investigation.

An autopsy is scheduled with the Iowa State Medical Examiner
