This is in memory to actor Sal Mineo. He was murdered on this date in 1976 after returning home from preparing for a play. The person who did it was caught several years later, there is still doubt it was the right person. Sal was in  the wrong place at the wrong time, he was in his 30's. A terrible shame, we your fan's love and miss you Sal.

How awful!

It is Karen. He was a good actor. His best work was in the 50's, but he did a lot of good work through the 60's and 70's as well.

Three clicks on your post, on my feeds, kept bringing me to the home page. Grrrrrrrrr! I remember him as a very talented actor. Sad what happened to him.

Someone really screwed up the works around here big time! Gather has to know about it. So why is it taking so long to fix it I wonder?

He was very talented. It was a shock when he was murdered. If I remember correctly his murderer didn't even know who he was. So young, and so tragic.

He was very good and was becoming a director. Sad.
