Oh, I was 1/2 right though.

Blake claimed he had returned briefly to the restaurant to retrieve a revolver he had accidentally left behind and returned to find her dead. The gun, which he carried legally, was not the murder weapon.

The gun used in the killing, a World War II-era Walther P-38, was found in a Dumpster near the crime scene, but police were unable to trace it to Blake.

Wasn't she killed w/ Blake's gun that he "left in the restaurant"?.
Nope.


No DNA evidence, no ballistics evidence, no credible witnesses (unless you're going to count a couple of meth-using former stuntmen), Blake was found not guilty by a jury of his peers, the judge dismissed the one deadlocked (11 to 1) count, and there are few if any similarities between this case and O.J.'s, i.e., O.J. had his dream team of Cochran, Shapiro, et al, Blake had basically a no-name lawyer who earned Blake's acquittal the old fashioned way - he demonstrated to the jury that the State had no case.

Not guilty. Get over it folks.

Not guilty is not the same as innocent. He may have been found not guilty but not many people think he is innocent.

During his post trial press conference Blake thanked his lawyers for their great work, and talked about how broke he was. He never mentioned the his dead wife and his indignation with the system that wrongly accused him and wasted all this time trying him when they should have been looking for the real killers.


Two things are certain, I'll never lose all of the weight I want to and Blake did it.

Do those who saw all the evidence tend to agree that there is no reason to doubt Blake's guilt? Did you hear all the evidence?

Ha! That would be my profound legal advice!

Some folks just don't know when to leave well enough alone.

Wow, it must be so difficult to know so much more than everybody else. The man was acquitted. There was really no evidence against him. This is nothing like OJ. Not even close. Maybe he's innocent. If you know something we don't, please let us in on it. Thank you.

What I know is that Bonnie Lee Bakely was a woman who needed killing, and the real crime would have been letting her influence the life of her little girl.

So, there is no such thing as evil and no civil responsibility to eradicate it? Bonnie Lee Bakely was a sh*tnado of evil. This is a case where nobody saw the killing of the town bully, though it happened in broad daylight.

To some, a quick look at the accused and the victim is enough to determine guilt or innocence.

She was a nasty piece of work, that's for sure. But Robert Blake found her good enough to have sex with and make a daughter with. He could have divorced her he didn't have to kill her. Or do you think that men should have the right to put a bullet in their wive's heads when they are sick of them?
