Chapter 50 Section 23

Later, many people said that there was a "romance" between us. In fact, at least on Johnny's side, he tried to keep a distance from me, lest he be misunderstood.My mother divorced her fourth husband, Lex Barco, because I told her that Lex molested me from time to time (hence why dad was so neurotic later!), and my mother swore she never brought it up to me. Nobody brought it up, but I guess she told Jonny.Jonny was always so careful when he was with me—careful not to touch, careful not to touch, careful not to look too happy, careful not to look too friendly, always stern, always succinct... …

Maybe I fucked him once, but it was just like I fucked other boys, didn't my mother often do that too? Cheryl Karan did not include in her autobiography the previously transcribed letter that was once widely circulated, but she did not deny it either. However, as far as the murder of Jonny Stepanato is concerned, few people think it is necessary to continue to pursue this clue.Just think about it, what's the point of haggling with a kid after running away from a big fish like Lana Turner?It's nothing more than judging more and judging less. However, after the incident, Lana's mother and daughter were separated for many years.Xue Luoer joined her father's "Luau" restaurant after she came out of the San Fernando Valley Girls' School, and has been developing in the catering industry since then.She said that she already hated the entertainment industry, and when she occasionally saw Lana, she stopped calling her "Mom" and changed her name to "Mother". It was not until Lana's later years that the mother and daughter walked around again.

Lana Turner's acting career and personal life were not affected too much by the murder of Joni Stepanato. She later made 12 films, married three times, and divorced three times.Lana starred in several good TV series in the 1970s and 1980s, including The Eagle's Nest.Lana Turner died of throat cancer in 1995 at the age of 74. Mickey Cohen was sentenced to 10 years in prison in 1962 for violating the federal tax law. After he was released from prison in 1972, he launched a prison reform movement and appeared in several influential cases. He died of illness in 1976. Cheryl Karan now lives in San Francisco and is still unmarried. She has publicly declared that she is gay.It is said that the only real love in her life was Joni Stepanato, whom she stabbed to death.

Mrs. Sunny von Prow was unconscious when she was brought to Newport Hospital. According to Lieutenant Paul Ripa of the fire brigade, he received a 911 call at 11:21 that morning, and arrived at the well-known Clarendon Manor of Von Prowe's house six minutes later.The housekeeper, Robert Byers, "invited" Lieutenant Ripa directly to his wife's bathroom in the master bedroom on the first floor. There, Lieutenant Ripa saw Mrs. von Prowes lying on the ground, her head just under the toilet, and her ankle-length purple bruises. The blue satin nightdress was rolled up to the waist, revealing the white silk drawers underneath.Madame von Prowes breathed weakly, her pulse was slow, her whole body was cold, there were streaks of blood hanging from her shattered and swollen lips, and there was a puddle of urine on her body.Lieutenant Ripa worked with the driver to carry the patient into the ambulance, which arrived at Newport Hospital three minutes later.The patient's husband, Mr. Closs von Prow, also arrived in the same car.

It was December 21, 1980, the Sunday before Christmas.Dr. Gerhard Meyer, the chief physician on duty, wrote at the beginning of Sunny von Pro's medical record: "Body temperature: 81.6 degrees Fahrenheit (that is, 27.6 degrees Celsius—author's note); pulse: every Minutes 36-40, the pupils began to dilate, and their sensitivity to light was extremely weak...it was suspected to be caused by a drug overdose." Unfortunately, Dr. Mayer did not follow the usual practice of using a magnifying glass to check whether there were any needle holes left by the injection on the patient. Because, he later explained in court, the patient's social and economic status made it impossible for her to use drugs.

However, at that time, Dr. Mayer still mentioned drugs, alcohol and so on in his inquiry to the patient's family.Mr. von Prowess did not dare to tell the truth for the sake of his wife's face. He told the doctor that, as far as he knew, Sunny had never taken drugs and had not drunk alcohol in recent days.
