LOS ANGELES (AP) — A yacht captain said on national TV Friday that he lied to investigators about Natalie Wood's mysterious death 30 years ago and blames the actress' husband at the time, Robert Wagner, for her drowning in the ocean off Southern California.
The circumstances of her death remain one of Hollywood's enduring mysteries and continue to create renewed intrigue, with homicide detectives on Thursday unexpectedly re-opening the case that had long been classified as a tragic accident.

So what? That has nothing at all to do with this specific situation.
Because someone was reported drunk by someone and they drowned, that automatically means that's what happened? Come on.
This guy is full of it. I saw where he also said that Walken lied and covered up the death for Wagner.
When she fell into the water, drunk, Natalie was wearing a full length down coat. She was face down, the coat spread out above her, waterlogged. She not only couldn’t swim, she was terrified of “dark water,” so this was her nightmare and she panicked. Instead of shucking the coat, she fought it, and it just held her under so she couldn’t splash or call out. Apparently she scratched at the dingy, but that was about it. It was horrible, but explainable without murder, because it could have happened fast and quietly.
YES..Everyone pretty much thinks that Wagner had something to do with it. They were drinking..arguing about her flirting with Christopher Walken...hey, she had humiliated him once when she left him for Warren Beatty and he took her back and remarried her. Crime of passion...

I'm not so sure that you should be accusing anybody of murder.
No, I am sure. You absolutely should not.
I suspect some really bad news for the Dems needs to be driven off the front page this coming week.
Everyone thinks this? Oh, Good Lord.

She couldn’t swim and was very afraid of water. So I imagine she just struggled and flayed about. Sad. Named my daughter after her.
Who is Number 1?
You are Number 6.
That would be telling.
Anti-Wagnite bastard.
I am not accusing...I am speculating. I am sure Robert Wagner doesn’t give a crap what I think.
A drowning person fights hardest just before they go under for the last time. A tragic ending regardless. Alcohol. Heavy coat. Perhaps head struck. Inability to swim. Many factors in this equation.
Why didn’t Natalie take a shower on the yacht?
She wanted to wash up on shore.
It’s idiotic to point any blame at Robert Wagner. He adored Natalie, married her twice. The LA sheriff has already ruled out Wagner as a suspect. Wagner, or RJ as he known, is beloved in Hollywood. One of the good guys.
Natalie Wood death: Robert Wagner not a suspect, Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department says
“follow the bubbles” usually works...during the daytime when you can see underwater.
