Theories Emerge On Stompanato Death Case
Hollywood theories emerge that Lana Turner’s lover Johnny Stompanato died from a stab wound inflicted during a struggle with Turner’s 14 year old daughter Cheryl and Stephen Crane. Attorney William Pollack argues a coroner’s inquiry was biased as he demonstrates a theory that Stompanato fell or was stabbed while not standing. Police call the claim unsubstantiated as details point to an April incident in Beverly Hills.
