On January 27, 2009, Eustis announced on the group's myspace blog that Charles Cooper had died. The info also appeared on the band's website: "Charles Wesley Cooper III / April 12, 1977 - January 22, 2009". A CBS2 Chicago article about Charles Cooper death specifies that he went missing on January 21st before being found dead.
