A community is in mourning after a former football star and San Jose police officer suddenly died.

24-year-old DeJon Packer died Sunday night in Milpitas.

The San Jose native is being remembered by his college coaches and teammates as a joyful person who cared about his city. Prayers for his family and friends have been pouring in.

Spartan head football coach Brent Brennan says Packer’s death has been heartbreaking for the team.

Packer was known for naturally drawing people in with his happiness.

Brennan was not surprised to see Packer choose a career of service after graduating from San Jose State.

San Jose police say the death of the rookie officer has been devastating for them.

Mayor Sam Liccardo also shared his condolences saying Packer will be remembered for his courageous commitment to the city.

Packer’s death is the latest painful loss in what has been a sad month at San Jose State – Spartan sports legend Lawrence Fan passed away on the night of February 21.

The circumstances of Packer’s death have not been released.

The Santa Clara County Medical Examiner and Milpitas PD are handling the investigation.

I’m tired of being “fair”! It’s the f’n shot. He’s 24, a former football star, healthy. “Fair” my ass. Half of Ft Bragg is dead and it ain’t from cholesterol.

Correct on all counts.

Whether his death is Jab related is speculation. But...but...if you believe, as I do, that there is a lot bad stuff happening now from the Jab, and a lot more coming down the pike, you know that we are never going to be told the facts about the victims.

Which will just make every story like this food for speculation. And make all of us who don’t trust the Jab, sound like wacko conspiracy kooks. As intended.

To be fair, it could be something like drugs or suicide. Even some type of genetic issue, but I get it.

It's far, far more likely that this was an accidental OD or suicide, but that's not what gets people's attention on this forum. The last two years have broken so many people inside and if someone still wants to blame Covid for these deaths, it's pretty accurate since it was the government's reactions to covid that pushed so many people into isolation, hopelessness, made them question their worth and kept them away from socialization and loved ones that increased suicide rates are a side effect.
