Fort Lauderdale Police were called to the Fort Lauderdale Eagle at 4:59 a.m. on Sunday, September 19, 2010 to investigate the death of Levi DeBow, 32 of Bloomfield, New Jersey. According to Eagle owner, Todd Rocko, DeBow, who was a personal friend of his, would occasionally help out in the club, usually on Saturday night as parking security and to clean the club. According to Rocko, after the club had closed, DeBow went into the back of the club to clean while Rocko and his assistant remained up front finishing up the day’s work. Approximately 45 minutes later, Rocko went in back to say good night to his friend when he found DeBow had hung himself on one of the hooks used for the wall restraints. Rocko said that DeBow had been going through tough times and mood swings recently since breaking up with his girlfriend. He also said that something had happened, perhaps a phone call, that caused DeBow to tell him that his own life was “pathetic” and that he “wished it was over.” Rocko says that it didn’t register what his comment meant. “It’s just so sad,” said Rocko, “that he didn’t know that whatever his problem was, it’s not that bad. It’s worse when you end it and you really don’t know how you affect people’s lives and you hurt the people that love you.” – BK
