I was in a Chatroom last night, and I read that the actor Jaleel White who played the nerd "Steve Urkel" on the sitcom, "Family Matters" committed suicide by shooting himself in the head at his apartment in California. But, when I go on the internet to search for the story, I didn't see anything. Has anyone else heard this story? Please tell me it isn't true!!!! Thank you.

Nope, he's still around. He's a producer now, I believe.
He was also voicing the Sonic the Hedgehog cartoons for awhile after family matters...

That is the most outrageous nonsense I have heard in a long time...Jaleel is alive and well and enjoying his royalties from the re-runs of family Matters.

No. He didn't. True his career is down the toilet, but he wouldn't kill himself over that. Would he?
