Paul Long, an English teacher at Oaks Christian School in Westlake Village, died this afternoon after being taken off life support at County-USC Medical Center. He had been riding the Metrolink train home, with his wife and son, after attending the funeral of Long's mother in South Carolina. A list of crash victims is expected to be released later. Officials said this afternoon that they have concluded the search for more bodies. All of the dead have been identified except for two females, and families are still being notified. LAPD assistant chief James McDonnell was quoted saying that Officer Spree Desha, who died in the crash, was wearing her uniform: "She sat in the first car, in uniform, as was her practice, so if someone got on the train who was disruptive, she could help out."
