But, when the Academy Award-winning actress began dating mobster Johnny Stompanato--a thug for west coast mob boss Mickey Cohen--all the lights and glamor of Hollywood did not brighten the darkness of her personal life. Johnny's intense jealousy over Lana ruled their relationship from the get-go and Lana's daughter, Cheryl, witnessed her mother's bruises and abuse first-hand. On an infamous night in 1958, Lana attempted to break it off with Johnny but he predictably turned violent and Cheryl tried to protect her mother with a knife, killing him. The subsequent murder trial made for the biggest headlines of the year, its drama eclipsing every Hollywood movie. In Murder in Hollywood, Casey Sherman pulls back Tinseltown's velvet curtain to reveal a dark underbelly of celebrity, rife with toxic masculinity and casual violence against women. But in this case, Lana Turner and her daughter finally stood up, which makes for one of the 20th century's most notorious true crime stories"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Adult New Books 364.15209 Sh Checked out 05/09/2024 Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.15209 Sh Checked out 05/14/2024 Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.15209 Sh Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 364.15209 Sh Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
