Me too. Actually, I kinda felt sorry for Robert Blake. This woman targeted him, got pregnant to trap him and married him for celebrity and money.....she was a very unsavory character.

Whether he killed her or not, I just don't feel that bad that she got killed......she was hardly innocent like Jon Benet or Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman.

I agree ^^ I also felt very sorry for Robert Blake on getting caught up with her. She was not a nice person at all and scammed lonely men. Anyone of those men could have followed her and then killed her.

I completely agree as well - and I did not think he did it - I suppose that there will always be those who question whether he got off because he was a celeb....I think he got off because he was innocent and certainly, given her apparent history and her associates, there well may be a long list of potential suspects - I just wonder why, especially when someone has been vindicated from a crime, that law enforcement does not continue its investigations.

I believe he was guilty as sin.

Jasper12, you really think he was guilty? Why?

My thoughts are that obviously there was not enough evidence to convict him. I have faith in our legal system. I believe that if he had been guilty, then he would have gone to jail.

Since the jury did not convict him because of lack of evidence, or State did not put on a sufficient case, or it was not beyond a reasonable doubt...and/or he is simply not guilty, as the jury felt, then why is there not an ongoing investigation? Why would law enforcement NOT want to know who did this crime?

Well, it's just like the OJ situation.........they never spent any time looking for the "real" killers.

I'm with you! I read the entire true crime book. And I wasn't even half-way thru the book and I was so appalled by her behavior, I was surprised someone didn't put this unsavory woman out of human circulation long, long before. IMO, she had it coming, and when they find the true killer, a huge cash award should be awaiting him or her!

I think it was someone she scammed while with Blake in his back house. I think she was up to her old ways and she scammed the wrong person. They were stalking her until they could get her alone and do the deed.

If Blake had done it and hired 2 men to do the deed, those men would have spilled by now. That's how people finally get caught is by someone running their mouths.
