#22 Robert Blake


"On May 4, 2001 Actor Robert Blake and then-wife Bonnie Lee Bakley were having dinner at Vitello's, a favorite Italian diner. They parked several blocks away in a dark area near a dumpster. After dinner, Blake escorted Bakely back to the car. According to Blake, he realized that he left a handgun he was carrying back at the restaurant. When he returned to the car, he says he found her shot in the head." Robert Blake had a showboat of an attorney in Thomas Mesereau. Mesereau put on one heck of a show, confused the jury and helped Blake walk free. Guess you can't really ask for more than that, huh?
