Members flummox Posted August 30, 2009 Members Share Posted August 30, 2009 What possible good can come of that now? Don't you get it? Celebrities don't just die from their own carelessness or stupidity anymore. There's got to be somebody else to BLAME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jelloman Posted August 30, 2009 Members Share Posted August 30, 2009 The truth? Of course that matters...but he will be just as dead, and after 40 years I doubt that justice is possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wyatt Posted August 30, 2009 Members Share Posted August 30, 2009 The truth? Re-examined does not mean re-investigated. This will pretty much be the same as a cold case review that police departments are required to do every year on unsolved cases. As for the truth, it's too long to expect anything significant. Witness' testimony is usually highly inaccurate just minutes after a crime, make it years and their testimony is totally useless. His death is too ambiguous to expect a definitive answer and it will just fuel pointless allegations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the same Wyatt, this is as a result of possible new evidence that should it prove to be substantial will result in a possible reinvestigation, and it seems from some radio news that it may possibly be of that sort of nature.

It's too late, this after the fact investigations generally falter. Even if they can determine a possible homicide, they can never prove it. I guessing this gets swept under the rug pretty fast. It's a PR nightmare for the police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they can determine a possible homicide, they can never prove it. Proof would depend on the nature of the evidence, we've had quite a few 20-30 year old crimes slolved with convictions. The verdict on his death was misadventure so no criminal proceedings were ever brought. If the nature of the evidence suggests that this verdict was wrong it will have to be reinvestigated, there'll be no choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cadfael Posted August 30, 2009 Members Share Posted August 30, 2009 I recall hearing that at the time he was having work done at the house and apparently there were some verbal dust ups between him and the workmen. The workmen apparently none too impressed with Jones, who at this time was quite fragile from drug abuse and drink. The idea was that maybe something got out of hand and he was killed by the workmen, like manslaughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members flummox Posted August 30, 2009 Members Share Posted August 30, 2009 Anymore? He didn't die "anymore" ago Jimi Hendrix was "murdered"... Kurt Cobain was "murdered"... Jim Morrison was "murdered"... Brian Jones was "murdered"... Michael Jackson was "murdered"... I was referring to the recent media fad of attaching highly speculative murder theories to well-documented celebrity deaths. It's easy to see why - it's entertaining, it sells books, it boosts ratings and record sales. But it would be a shame to see someone's life or reputation ruined should one of these "investigations" go too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
