BAYPORT - A registered sex offender who lived in Tampa was the man found dead in a parked sport utility vehicle on Wednesday, according to the sheriff's office.

Guy Cevetello, 43, was discovered slumped behind the wheel of a white Mazda by a jogger around 9:45 a.m. on Bayou Drive. The narrow road is bounded by a salt marsh and connects Pine Island Drive to State Road 550, near Bayport Park.

The medical examiner is still investigating, but signs point to suicide, said Sgt. Donna Black, spokeswoman for the sheriff's office.

A news release defines those signs as a note, weapon and reason. Black declined to identify the weapon out of respect for the family.

"They're the ones that really suffer," she said.

Cevetello was on federal probation at the time of his death for possession of child pornography, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement's sex offender database.
