Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

I don't know who caught him and I don't know how, but John Parson's is in the house. Hopefully everything can now get back to normal and his prosecution will move forward.

So glad to see they caught Parsons today! Thinking of all of you!

Officer Cox,
I never knew you but was selected to portray you in a reenactment on Americas Most Wanted. It was an honor & privilege to learn how you lead your life.

To Larry's family:

I know how important it is to see some form of justice served to those resposible. I was happy to see one of my favorite criminals on America's most wanted. I hope all of those who helped him go straight to Hell with him. As miserable as it is to sit through a murder trial and have to see coroners pictures and bloody clothes, it is worth it to bring some kind of justice to this situation, and there's never any real justice because our loved ones will never come back. It's just the least anyone can do. I am confident that your family will have a chance to see Larry's killer pay.

Hey You. Well it seems like years since Ive been on here. I check this page daily but not sure if I should write or not. Sometimes I feel like I should just stop writing and other days I think I could go on forever. Im not sure what kind of day this is yet. It is kind of humid out and trying to rain some. I just got back from Wal-Mart and as always, I thought about you. I went by all of the "houses" on my way home and everything looked normal. I havent talked to anyone lately I guess they have all been busy doing stuff.

Im sure Evan is getting ready for another year at school. I hope he graduates with honors and loads of memories. I think most of my friends I have are from my school days. I hope he can say the same thing when he has been out for 20 years. That seems like such a long time, doesnt it? 20 years. You remember mister, you had me by how many years? It was eight just in case you choose to forget. EIGHT.

Well, not much is happening down here just all of us missing you still. Not a day goes by that I dont think of something you did or said. I keep telling myself that one of these days that I will sit down and tell Teresa and Evan some stories. I just dont want to share all of them yet. Some of them are probably better off not told anyway. Im sure some of them are dumb to some but priceless to me. Im sure I can bring a laugh or two out of somebody. One of these days.

Im sitting here trying to convince myself to go to bed but just cant quite muster up the energy to get there. Im listening to Becky on the scanner. She sounds a little flustered for some reason. She doesnt get rattled very often or flustered but she sounds like it tonight. Im sure what ever it is thats bugging her she will tell him when he comes in or deal with it later. You know Bek.

Me, Hooter and Teri went to the movies the other night. We laughed and laughed. It was good, we went to see Pirates of the Carribean. The movies was kind of stupid but we all laughed at one point during it.

Well, I need to pull myself together and get chilled out so I can get to bed and get up for work tomorrow.

Please Larry, keep us all safe and motivated to do the right thing. Please watch over all of us and help us to stay strong.

I really miss you. C ya. Love Ya. Me.

I do not know you personally, but I have been following this story through my aunt that lives in chillicothe. I personally live in Mississippi and every since i heard about this, it has laid heavy on my heart. I know that the person that did this to you will have to face God one day and he will personally get what he deserves. Anybody that can take another persons life, is nothing but a coward in my book. So he will definatly get his justice one day.

Don't worry, someone will find this JERK and he will regret all he has done. To everyone out there looking, I hope this guy will not be brought back alive. Justice needs to be served and there are ways of making sure that happens. Everyone in the United States needs to keep an eye out for this guy. I am not an Ohio citizen, I heard about this on the national news. I want justice to be served and I know it will because we have so many fine police officers in the country and helping us from above. My thoughts and prayers are with the Cox family and the Chillicothe Police Department. Go get em boys!

August 16, 2006

To the family of Officer Cox - I am praying for all of you. I know how hard it must be to have your loved one's killer on the loose. I lost my brother last year also. It is so hard to heal, let alone deal with all of this. Hang in there, there are many people behind you.

Dear Larry,

It has been awhile since I have written. I was like others and have been trying to get over your death and it has been hard. I was waiting for the suspect to go to trial so
there could finally be some closure. I can't believe he was able to escape. I think the prisioners have to many rights. After all they are in jail to be punished not to have play time. I hope and pray that they catch him soon
and I hope he pays the price for taking my friends life
(your). I saw your mom and sister the other day and talked to them, they had been out to the search area. I asked about your dad and Teresa and they said they were better.
I know this escape has been hard on all of them. We all just want him found and to have that closure. It won't make us miss you any less and we will never forget you but it may make it a little easier.Your legacy and memories will always be apart of us. There was only one like you.
Well until next time my friend I will keep hoping and praying that they get you killer and bring him to justice.
Always thinking of you,
your friend Sandy

You found him 9 days after he took Officer cox away from us. You will find him again. Scum can't hide forever!

August 6, 2006

Well, I dont know where to start. Wow! What a week. It has been very hot down here both temperatures and emotions. Please help us. We need someone to guide us in the right direction. We need someone to tell us what to do next, we need someone to tell us its going to be okay. We need you to tell us Larry. I honestly feel that what has happened, has happened for a reason. There is someone in more control than us and you are up there with Him not us. Who are we to question that? We need to accept the Lord's will and go from there. Some people tell me that God had nothing to do with it, it was the other one. Well, I dont believe that for a second and I know you agree with me. I know that this has happened for a good reason. We will know the answer when He wants us to know. I just cant believe that more people cant see it that way. Wow.

Anyway, I went down to talk to ya today and meet some people. I met John's dad. He said his son was a poll bearer and I asked who his son was. I met a gentleman that works at Kenworth and he told me that he believes that your soul is setting on the top of the tombstone. He also told me that he says a prayer everytime he is there for you. He was a really nice man. He also said he waters the flowers if they are dry. I thanked him and told him that you would appreciate it. We also talked about the rainbow that you sent us. He had some really thoughtful things to say. There was another couple down there that commented on your headstone. They were rather impressed with it. I told them your family designed it. He said to tell them they did a good job. I told your mom when I talked to her on the phone. There were two girls there also. I didnt get a chance to talk to them they left before I could say anything to them. It was a rather happenin' place to be this evening.

Please help "Hodgie" with his new assignment. He may need a little extra with that. He is determined so I have faith in him and his goal. I really hope that what he is trying to accomplish he will get very soon.

Anyway, I have company coming over so I will just fill you in when I see ya tomorrow. Keep us strong and safe!

C ya. Love Ya. Me.

We are still looking. It is so hot out and everyone is so tired. But we will not quit until we have completed this mission. You wouldn't believe all the different agencies who are helping us. And you would be so proud of your son. Your parents are rather outspoken, haven't held a thing back and your wife is getting stronger everyday. Not a shy wallflower, that's for sure. Keep an eye on us all and give us a little nudge in the right direction when you can!

August 3, 2006

I was shocked to hear Nancy Grace on television this morning reporting that your killer had escaped. In California, it did not make our local news so I am glad that his escape is getting national coverage. Hopefully, this scum will be caught without any others being hurt or killed while trying to apprehend him. Know that in California are prayers are with all of you.

Larry, The event happend yesterday afternooon where your killer escaped. The Law Enforcement are working their hardest on finding John Parson's again. It will be a good thing if they do for someone who is outraged with this could act in violence and I know you dont want that. I can picture you right now standing by the Cpd, Rcso and Osp while they continue to search for the armed and dangerous villan who took you from us.

Larry keep our community safe as you once did before. A gut Feeling is tellin me Parsons isn't going to give up anytime soon with this. He may harm another larry another who could join you. Larry watch over the communtiy until this killer is brought to the right justice and tried and convicted and then sentenced to death. always

Not a good day today in Chillicothe. We are all in shock because of the events unfolding here. Be with everyone as we once again search for your killer. We love and miss you. There will be justice.

Larry-- please keep everyone out there who is looking today safe. Thinking of you, always.

Larry, the day nears on me that I ship out for the army special forces. Wow have things been crazy lately or what? We all miss you. Not this Saturday but next I'll be taking test.Larry you were always there for us when we needed you ..especially with test you always talked to us. I ask you now for you guidence on this. for this may be the hardest test of my life.

I visited you yesterday . Boy was it hot out. I sit there and look around me . and all I see is a lot full of people . Death sucks ..Still to this day I wonder why it was you who was taken from us. It could have been someone else .but never do I wish death upon someone. Death is the most tragic thing a person and family has to deal with and in some peoples case they never find closer. As I run down the flood wall they hair on my neck stands up and I stop right by the baseball diamond and look at the flag waving. You know it may sound crazy but I always feel your gental touch on my shoulder and then a nudge as if your saying lets finsih the run.

Officer Cox I miss you as so many more do . I'll see you again . One day soon but not soon enough. take care and tell everyone up there hey from all of us down here. Becuase without a doubt in my mind your already well known up there as well down here. Love and Miss you old friend.
