Nelius Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 This is so awful. Really hope the reports about his kids are inaccurate. I can't imagine a newborn being there without the mother. 2020 sucks so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Duffy Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 (edited) Awful news! So was his daughters with him? Seeing some reports saying yes and some no. I certainly hope not, but wow!

He bought it a while ago to avoid traffic. twitter is all over the place reporting who was on helicopter with him. Started with his kids and now saying rick fox.

And ABC reports 4 dead kids so they can 'break' the story. And people wonder why so many in this country have completely tuned out the major media outlets. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible sad. I didn’t realize he regularly used his own Sikorsky helicopter to commute from Newport Beach to the Staples Center. In that traffic, I get it. If you’re worth hundreds of millions, you can do stuff like that. Life itself is a risk. Take nothing for granted. RIP, prayers to his family. .
