R16: She was strangled to death by her ex boyfriend. Trade doesn't get much rougher than that.

It may be pointless to suggest here that there is good reason to believe that Pasolini was a hit, staged to look like a pick up gone bad. There was an objective inquiry paid for by friends that raised serious doubts about the official story. As a left wing, openly gay critic of the collusion between the Vatican and the Mafia and American attempts to destabilize the world he had well placed and determined enemies.

George Rose was not killed by rough trade. He fell in love with a teenage boy who lived near his island home in the Dominican Republic. He adopted the boy, whose father was still alive, and named him his sole heir.

Then the boy grew a couple years older and discovered girls. Rose grew annoyed that the boy was no longer willing to tolerate his physical attention. Rose loudly and foolishly declared to others that he would disinherit the boy and soon. Before he could do that, the boy's father and uncle kidnapped Rose, tortured him and killed him.

The murder was staged to look like a car accident and the police were willing to sweep it under the rug. A female friend of Rose's demanded an investigation which resulted in the imprisonment of the adult killers. The boy was given immunity for having been used as a pawn by everyone on both sides.

Uh, no. She was stabbed to death by a stranger she picked up at a bar, a psychotic bi-sexual hustler hopped up on drugs.

[quote] After a lengthy investigation, Lionel Ray Williams, a pizza deliveryman, was arrested for the crime. In March 1979, he was convicted and sentenced to 57 years in prison for killing Mineo, and for committing 10 robberies in the same area.

Pron actor Billy London. Interesting in that they found his head and feet in a dumpster. What a way to go!

Billy London

The head and feet of gay porn model Billy London (William Arnold Newton) were found in a dumpster in an alley behind Santa Monica Boulevard on October 28, 1990. The star of Bulge: Mass Appeal, Hard Choices, Head of the Class, Hot Wired, Imperfect Strangers, and Sex Drive 2020 had reportedly been kidnapped prior to his murder and dismemberment. The case was never solved, though the original lead detective, Wendi Brandt, announced in 2005 that she was reinvestigating the case after being made supervisor of the LAPD Homicide Unit, Hollywood Division.

R29: Uh, YES. Check Dominique Dunne's Wikipedia entry. She was strangled by her ex.

You're thinking of Theresa Dunn (Looking for Mr. Goodbar), who was stabbed by a one night stand.

You might enjoy reading all the unsolved LGBT crimes on the Unfinished Lives Blog, about gay lives snuffed out... interesting reading with new updates but after an hour or so it gets creepy. Like read in moderation as some of the shit that's going on can really make your blood boil.

I think all gay men should carry guns.

Liebre & Stiller wrote Tango for Peggy Lee's bizarre and brilliant Mirrors album.

It's a song poem about Ramón Novarro's murder by two hustlers.

The lyrics and Lee's delivery are creepy as fuck, in a good way.

It's my favorite song about a faded and forgotten movie star murdered by rough trade!

I knew Jack, an older guy who had lived his life deep in the closet until the mid-90s. Killed by bad judgement, I think.

[quote]Jack Ronald Merker -- The Voice Stilled Merker enjoyed a long and distinguished career in San Diego, California, radio as an executive producer at KNSD/Channel 39, program director at both KOGO/AM 600 and KSDO/AM 1130, and as an on-air broadcast news personality. Colleagues credited him with making radio news in the area more lively and competitive as well as for launching the talk show career host of Michael Reagan, son of former President Ronald Reagan. In 1996, the openly gay Merker produced a radio show about AIDS that was honored with the New York International Radio Award. He served as the county's director of media and public relations until ill health in 1999 prompted him to retire to the desert community of Palm Springs, California. The 63-year-old former radio executive was staying at the home of a friend in Palm Springs when he was last seen leaving a local bar on November 28 or 29, 2001, with a man later identified as Erick Lavonne Wright (reported in the press as "Erik Levaughan Wright"), a 22-year-old resident of nearby Rancho Mirage. Days later on December 1, a real estate agent showing the home of Merker's friend to a prospective buyer discovered the radio man's body tossed into a laundry room. Merker, bound and gagged, had died of "compression of the neck." Prime suspect Erick Wright proved easy for Palm springs authorities to find. The day prior to the shocking discovery of Merker's body, Wright had been arrested by local police for the recent robbing and repeated stabbing of a motorist who had given him a ride. At trial, Wright admitted choking Merker, but only to disable him after the elderly man became violent during their sexual encounter. The prosecution maintained Wright deliberately killed Merker to get money for drugs. Found guilty of second-degree murder on January 6, 2004, he was subsequently sentenced to a prison term of 15 years to life. As of May 2014, Erick Lavonne Wright, Inmate #V26049, is incarcerated at the Chuckawalla Valley State Prison in Blythe, California.
