Sounds like this happened on the Dec. 10. Anyone know details?

Hmm, must have been filtered out. It was on c.d.n.n., but the quote in the first post is the whole text of the story. I guess this must be that site that's on SB's no-no list.

Yeah, I figured it out. That is a site they filter. I'm still researching for more info on this. I'm actually from Oklahoma.

There is a little exert in the Californian with no other information. It just say autopsy is pending.
I think I know someone he went to high school with. My condolences goes out to his family and friends.

Then I wouldn't give it much credence.

I think it's ligit:
Salinas Californian - www.thecalifornian.com - Salinas, CA

There's just no other information.

Not saying that it didn't happen, but I live in Monterey and I haven't heard anything about it - and I check the local paper every day. It would be very odd that something like this didn't appear in the Monterey Herald.

I'm starting to question this myself now. I have looked on the local channel websites, the herald, sfgate, Salinas news, Oklahoma and California obituaries and I'm coming up with nothing so far.

I know this person and it did happen. But the cause of death has not yet been determined. They don't know if it was just a coincidence that it happened while diving.
