goraiders Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I was just looking him up on wikipedia, I had no idea how crazy his death was. He allegedly was about a girl who ran away, then he assaulted the manager at the motel he was staying at and she shot him dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
