What really happened to Bob Crane from Hogan's Heroes and did he deserve his fate?

[Lliam]

He seduced many beautiful wives of powerful men and filmed himself having sex with them.
I guess somebody found out and it did not end well. He was apparently a real perv.
Do you think he got what he deserved?

His lover, John Carpenter, killed Crane June 29,1978, two weeks before Crane's 50th birthday and a week before my 25th (I was a St. Clair College, Windsor, Ont., Can. student at the time) and he didn't deserve to be murdered though "All-American boy" Bobby was actually a perv.

I read that Carpenter was eventually charged but then acquitted. I never heard anything about them being lovers. Interesting. What was his motive?

I always thought someone was pissed off about Crane fucking their wife and, on top of that, filming it and holding viewing parties.

It was well known Crane and Carpenter were lovers, and Crane was into bondage, S&M and other kinky mess. Carpenter was acquitted because a lot of the evidence, though damning, was circumstantial.

He had a pretty extensive pornography collection. And liked to trade porno videos with other guys. Somebody beat him to death.

Crane's boyfriend, John H. Carpenter.

[AI Opinion]

Bob Crane’s death is still officially unsolved. He was bludgeoned in his Scottsdale apartment in 1978, and while his friend John Carpenter was tried, he was acquitted due to weak evidence.

Crane absolutely lived a messy, exploitative sex life, especially by today’s standards, but “deserving” murder is a huge moral leap. Consent issues should be condemned, yet vigilantism and brutal killing are never justified. Nobody “deserves” that fate. 🎥

It's a very sordid tale. I think we will never know.

[Iron_Man]

[Lliam]
