New evidence links Robert Wagner to Natalie Wood's drowning
- Marti Rulli urges the Los Angeles DA to investigate Natalie Wood's death amidst new eyewitness testimonies.
- Witness accounts suggest Robert Wagner displayed violent behavior towards Wood just before her drowning.
- The case remains open while Wagner is alive, raising hopes for potential justice for Natalie Wood.
In the United States, author Marti Rulli has requested the Los Angeles District Attorney to reopen the investigation into actress Natalie Wood's death, which remains unresolved after over four decades. Rulli recently reported that numerous eyewitnesses have come forward with alarming claims, including a teenager who was present during the critical moments before Wood's death. This teenager was a worker on a nearby fishing boat and corroborated earlier police testimony regarding a violent confrontation between Wood and her husband Robert Wagner. The investigation was previously opened again in 2011, which allowed these new accounts to surface. Rulli believes that the new evidence points strongly towards Wagner as a suspect in Wood's tragic drowning incident that occurred near their yacht, 'Splendour.' Evidence from other witnesses included an elderly woman who worked with Wood in the 1960s, shedding light on alleged abusive behavior by Wagner towards Wood, further complicating Wagner's narrative that Wood left the boat voluntarily. Rulli aims to deliver more details of these revelations in her forthcoming book, set to explore the untold aspects of Wood's death and the historical context surrounding it. The ongoing discourse surrounding this case underlines the urgency of attaining justice for Wood, especially as Wagner ages, with a sense of impending closure being a driving force behind Rulli's efforts and the renewed interest from the public and authorities alike around this high-profile case.
