I have been reading these posts and I am still in shock. I worked for many years with Rich. And I can tell you he was not always a bad person. He was a good friend of mine. We lost touch with him shortly after the plant closed down.Only seeing him in passing on the road here and there. That seems to be when his life changed. I don't know what the facts are or what happened that night...only a few people actually do and the rest is hear say. I just want to let you know he was a nice person once and that this is definatly a case of a drug addiction taking over someones life with very tragic results. My heart goes out to Sharon and his 2 kids. And also the Kidd family.
UPDATE: Austintown shooting leaves two dead, one wounded
