He lived a pretty wild life, bi-sexual, attending live sex parties, etc. I think it finally just caught up with him. No real mystery IMO.

He was performing in a live supper-club / theater setting here locally. He 'fixated' on my {@ the time} g/friend , to the point of following her out to the p/lot after the show ended. She was there with 3 friends from work, kept trying to touch her. Creeped her out .

Too long ago to remember all the details, but the g/friend was really creeped out by him. Wouldn't even watch Hogan's Hero's reruns .

I was riding with my dad to work when that news was broadcast on the radio. He said "Well, Colonel Klink finally caught up with him."

 

[Aunt Marg]

Wow, that is creepy.

I do feel confident though that John Henry Carpenter, was the murderer.

I read a lot of the article but it's a very long one so I had to stop--but I got the gist of it. It was a very sad thing to lose Bob Crane at such a young age. He was a very likeable person imo.

I wonder if Carpenter was one of his lovers.

Indeed he was, Tish.

Wha? Who the lady singer from the Carpenters?

No, no... John Henry Carpenter, a lover of Bob Crane's.

It was big news here when it happened. The theater where he last performed was just a few miles from where I lived at the time. It was torn down a few years ago but always creepy to pass by when it was still around.

What a small world it is.

Thank you for sharing that, Markin.

There was a movie called Auto Focus that was about his life. It was pretty good.

I am glad that you recovered from one of the most emotionally devastating times in a woman's life. Your delicious sense of humor is proof of that. GOD Bless you.

I always enjoyed Bob Crane and was very sad when he died. It's funny because just the other day I watched this on youtube.

In addition to blood evidence found in Carpenter's car, a Cold Case investigation in 1992, found what appeared to be a brain fragment in the car's interior.

I feel confident and side with the investigators that Carpenter was the murderer.
