As a kid hearing about the Bob Crane murder i just assumed he was jilting a friend or something and thats why it went bad.
Now i wonder if he wasnt a bigger Hollywood blackmail provider who got whacked bc of what he knew/saw.

Loose lips sink ships. I bet he was gonna talk and had to be quieted.
I remember his death...now that you reminded me. I do remember there was something shady about it, but can't recall the details.
I was a big Hogans Heroes fan. Not old enough to remember the first run but in the 70s it was on lots of reruns. I remember the allegations when he died though. I was about 13 I think and the rumors of him being sex crazed kinda sticks out in a boy that age mind. The rumors though kinda fit right in with what we are realizing now. I couldnt tell you if he was a good guy or bad.
I remember. It was hinted that he had some perverted interests or associates. I figured at the time that he had become troublesome or talking too much.
He enjoyed making stag films of group sex of popular actresses and etc. Allegedly consensual adult stuff but looking back who knows?
He was a huge video buff and had heavy investments in all the newest cameras and etc back way before that was common or affordable for most people.
He died by being beaten over the head with one of his tripods iirc.
He was iirc going to try to get out of it or something and supposedly his friend John Carpenter was a suspect bc he wasn't attractive and couldn't pull the pretty girls like Crane did. Again, who knows? That's just what they sold us

What about Marilyn Monroe and her unborn JFK baby.
