		<description><![CDATA[
Although I have made much of my living writing about murder, mayhem and tragedy, I&#8217;m still having trouble putting down anything that is terribly coherent on the subject of Richard LoCicero&#8217;s death.
Fortunately, however, blogger (and WitnessLA commenter) Reg has written well over at Beautiful Horizons about why our friend Richard&#8212;the blogger, commenter, former college teacher, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[

I had been remiss.  I hadn&#8217;t talked to Richard since before Thanksgiving and I somehow misplaced the telephone number for the skilled nursing facility in Santa Ana where he had been transferred.  

I tried half-heartedly a couple of times to find it in my endless piles of papers and notebooks  with no [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[

I have more news about Richard LoCicero specifically&#8212;-and about the state of homelessness in Los Angeles County in general. 
 Both reports are unsettling. 
First let&#8217;s talk about Richard. 
If you&#8217;ll remember when we checked in with him last week, Richard was back in the hospital for congestive heart failure, a condition that is much [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[

I&#8217;m sorry to report that our friend Richard Locicero is doing quite poorly.  
For those of you who are new to the story, Richard is a good pal of ours at WLA and a former college teacher who,  for one reason and another&#8212;much of it having to do with ill health&#8212;is homeless.  [...]]]></description>

It is the beginning of the month again, which means Richard has gotten his SSI check and is spending a chunk of the money on a  few days&#8217; worth $49.99 nights at the Motel 6 in Santa Ana.  
He landed in the hospital ten days ago when his funds ran out (as they [...]]]></description>

My computer is having a psychotic break and I&#8217;m on my son&#8217;s laptop so I&#8217;ll make this brief.  But I wanted to bring you up to date on Richard.
