He performed a recovery dive a few years ago and found the body. Foul play was suspected. When the story broke on the local newspaper's website, anonymous commenters fingered my co-worker, the recovery diver. His only connection to the missing person, whose body he recovered was that the local law enforcement hired him to do the dive. Needless to say, he was extremely upset by the allegations posted by anonymous users. <br><br>I completely agree that posters need to be held accountable. The garbage posts on our local newspaper's website make me weep for the future. I've seen some pretty nasty comment threads on Facebook, so even when communication is not completely anonymous, people will still act like idiots.
