Vincent Bugliosi, the prosecutor of Charles Manson and his family dead at 80, while Manson, whom Buglliosi worked so hard to convict and obtain a death sentence, is still alive in prison. http://news.yahoo.com/vincent-bugliosi-prosecutor-manson-trial-dies-80-054033690.html
Bugliosi was a great prosecutor and a great writer. Helter Skelter is outstanding and his book on OJ, Outrage just blows apart any notion that OJ was not guilty. And his book on the JFK assassination Reclaiming History is 1,600 pages long, but he systematically demolishes each and every conspiracy theory with logic and facts and concludes that the Waren Commission got it right and Oswalt was a lone lunatic who shot the President. I disbelieved that for decades, but now any sensible person can see the evidence to conclude how it actually happened.
he was also a rhp and cy young almost runner up for the astros. behind his teammate steroid clemens. his patton-ted pitch was a 4 seamer.
At 93. Married to the same women for over 40 years. Soooo many great characters, each with their own flare.
Rest In Peace Sir Christopher. The most ultimate bad ass of all time. http://www.buzzfeed.com/benj21/christopher-lee-is-the-ultimate-badass-d46f#.le4BBmrBW6
