Rick Lopez, former coach of the Colorado Hoopsters girls team who faced 59 charges of sexual assault, assault and child abuse, was found dead in his jail cell in Castle Rock, Colo., Sunday.
Lopez, 37, was found hanging in his cell, Douglas County sheriff's spokesman Lt. Tim Moore told The Associated Press. Moore said a note was found near the body but would not reveal its contents. An investigation into the death was underway. |

Sad conclusion to a truly sad story. I hope his former players can move on.

wow, did you read the CSU coach's quote?
"The whole thing about Rick going back to Day One is that he was selfish. He showed his true colors by ending it like this, rather than showing any true remorse about the kids," Denker said. "You could talk about this being cowardly. You could talk about standing up and facing the facts. He showed no remorse.
"The players wanted a chance to put some finality to the situation through whatever the proper process is. Now, they're not going to have that opportunity."
