I heard about a cave diving fatality near the Layfette Blue system in Mayo, Florida. Was wondering if anyone knows anything more about this, or if its even true. Anyhow, if it is true my prayers go out to the family and friends of the diver.

On behalf of the IUCRR, I can state there appears to have been a
fatality in a small system near Lafayette Blue, Mayo County, Florida.
The victim's dive plan was a solo, side mount exploration dive.
Recovery personnel and law enforcement personnel are on site as well
as friends of the victim. I would urge that the community not
speculate as to the cause of this accident. Our prayers and support
go out to the family and friends.
