Show Notes

On the evening of May 4, 2001, actorRobert Blake took his new bride Bonnie Lee Bakley out to dine at Vitello's, a restaurant in Los Angeles' Studio City. On the surface, it looked like the pair shared a romantic evening. But by the end of the night, Bakley would be dead.

The scandalous, chilling details that would come out about the marriage between the star-chaser and the washed-up celebrity would prove to be tabloid fodder. But no one could guess the outcome of two trials that sought to hold Blake accountable for Bakley's murder — that proved to be a twist ending worthy of a Hollywood thriller.
