Did Todd Jones really die? Twitter trend?

[Eagles!]

It's trending that Todd Jones died. No disrespect but I don't think he did. I've been researching all morning and I haven't found any records of his death or even the navy seal Todd Jones. Can I get some answers if this guy even existed?

According to The Daily Caller:

The Navy Times reports:

If you see posts floating around the Twittersphere that the Navy SEAL who killed Osama bin Laden is dead, don’t believe it.

The hoax claims that “Navy SEAL Todd Jones,” the man responsible for bin Laden’s death, has now been killed in combat. First off, the name of the SEAL who shot Osama has never been released. Second, an official from Navy Personnel Command told Navy Times that there is no SEAL named Todd Jones in their database.
