LC is in my CC. It was brought to our attention from a member, who found out from a former Member. This former member received the following message from LC's Skype acct:

According to what was posted earlier, unless he is a civilian employee of the Seminole County Sheriff's office then Rich would be a Deputy Sheriff. Looking at Seminole County Sheriff's office web site In Memoriam shows the last Deputy to die in the line of duty was on December 26th 2011. I would assume that if a deputy had died from other causes they would be listed on the site as well and there were none. And there was no posting on their facebook page on April 5th.
I seen this part of the website also. This would only have officers that were lost on Duty.

That is the Oviedo City Police Dept. He worked for the Seminole County Sheriffs Dept.
I have looked at this website for information. http://www.seminolesheriff.org/external/Main.aspx
I came across 8 last names of Officers that work in the Canine Dept, through their daily police logs. I tried using those to find an Obituary. I found none with those as last names. I am not sure why I or we can't find an Obit for Rich in Florida. It could be as one member said, that he was a Police Officer and still has family. Or it could be that before he was an Officer in Florida, he had come from Indianapolis. I'm not sure if that is where he is originally from.
I could send an email or a message to Rich's Skype acct. or email address. But I really don't want to bother or bring things up again with his kids. They have been through a lot in the past 2 - 3 years. They lost their mother and Rich's wife about 2 years ago to Cancer.
I have sent a message to the website above through "Contact Us" to try and find out any further information. If I don't hear anything soon, I will try calling them to find out.
I myself don't think it is any type of a Hoax. But this is the internet and anything is possible with someone getting a hold of someone elses accts.
