Robert Wagner Named Person of Interest in Natalie Wood Investigation
Back in 1981, actress Natalie Wood drowned off the coast of Catalina Island.
The beloved star of such film classics as West Side Story, Miracle on 34th Street and Rebel Without a Cause was just 43 years old.
In the decades since Woods’ death, the suspicion that she was murdered by husband Robert Wagner has persisted – and with good reason.
In 2014, Wagner was questioned by police in connection with his wife’s death.
In 2016, it was widely rumored that the actor would be taken into police custody, but the arrest was never made.
Speculation about Wagner’s possible motives has varied widely over the years, but the most popular theory these days seems to be that Wood walked in on her husband in bed with friend Christopher Walken while the three actors were on an overnight yachting expedition.
Wagner chased Wood on deck, the story goes, and she either slipped, hit her head, and fell in the water, or he struck her and dumped her unconscious body overboard, where she drowned.
It may sound outlandish, but it’s not just tabloids and social media gossip hounds who are still interested in the details of that fateful night.
In 2011, the investigation was re-opened, and Wood’s cause of death was officially changed from “accidental drowning” to “drowning and other undetermined factors.”
On Saturday night, a new 48 Hours special entitled “Natalie Wood: Death in Dark Water” will debut on CBS.
The episode features conversations with some of the authorities who have been investigating Woods’ passing for six years now – and they say they’re ready to interrogate Wagner:
“As we’ve investigated the case over the last six years, I think he’s (Wagner) more of a person of interest now,” says John Corina, of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
“I mean, we know now that he was the last person to be with Natalie before she disappeared.”
Public suspicion of Wagner and Walken began shortly after Wood’s death when it was revealed that they claimed she unexpectedly set out by herself in a dinghy in the middle of the night.
When family and friends revealed that Wood had a crippling fear of water and drowning, the actors changed their stories.
“I haven’t seen him (Wagner) tell the details that match all the other witnesses in this case,” Corina says.
“I think he’s constantly changed his story a little bit. And his version of events just don’t add up.”
The special also features an interview with Detective Ralph Hernandez. who recently evaluated Wood’s autopsy report and confirmed that the actress had fresh bruises on her body at the time of her death.
“She looked like a victim of an assault,” Hernandez says.
Producers of 48 Hours say Wagner declined their request to comment on the story.

Jerry Seinfeld Has No Interest in Hugging Kesha
Anyone who has watched Seinfeld is well aware that the show"s main star is not a fan of obligatory hello kisses.
There was an entire episode dedicated to how Jerry would go to extreme lengths in order to avoid pecking a female friend on the cheek upon greeting her.
But apparently Kesha missed this one.
Much to her current embarrassment.
On Tuesday night, both Kesha and Jerry Seinfeld attended the David Lynch Foundation"s A Night of Laughter and Song at the Kennedy Center.
At one point on the red carpet, the iconic comedian was talking to a reporter about being tired and trying to sleep when the singer rushed over and told Seinfeld how she loves him “so much.”
Jerry was a bit taken aback, but he acknowledged Kesha"s praise with a smile and said "oh, thanks."
But this wasn"t enough for poor Kesha, who proceeded to go in for a hug."
No thanks, Seinfeld responded.
Please, asked Kesha.
No thanks, Seinfeld said again.
A little one? Kesha replied.
Yeah, no thanks, Seinfeld calmly shot back.
And that was it!
Kesha walked away in shame and Seinfeld cracked up.
Not out of cruelty or anything, just out of the oddness of the situation.
He didn"t want to hug a stranger. Can you blame the guy?!?
"I don"t know who that was," Seinfeld said to the reporter after the interaction.
He was then informed he was Kesha and responded, "Well, I wish her the best."
It"s an amazing clip.
And if Kesha is feeling at all bad about herself as a result of it, we"re guessing that Jerry was thrown off by her lack of glitter and the lack of a dollar sign in her name.
If she still rocked those accessories, Seinfeld totally would have gone in for a quick embrace upon recognizing her right away.

Ariel Winter: Stimulating Teenage Boys, Interest in Animal Rights With Latest Pic
Ariel Winter is a talented actress, a well-spoken young woman, and she always looks good.
This time, she’s using her stunning looks for a great cause.
She captioned the photo:
“Put on your bunny ears to show you are #ForeverAgainstAnimalTesting.”
Her hands are the bunny ears, you see.
And bunnies are so often the victims in animal testing.
It wasn’t just an empty hashtag, however, because she made her cause clear.
“Sign the petition to ban animal testing in cosmetics globally! Link in bio.”
Before you freak out, you should know that this doesn’t seem to be a PETA thing.
Because yeah, not all organizations that sound like they’re for good causes are necessarily on the level. Unfortunately.
This seems to be real, and that’s no surprise — Ariel Winter is a smart young woman.
Animal testing is an age-old and often cruel practice.
What’s a cheap and easy way to find out if your new cosmetics cause chemical burns or blindness?
Easy — you just slap them on a bunny’s face and see what happens.
Now think about how many cosmetic products are on the shelves, and how many furry friends have suffered for so many of them.
We’re glad that Ariel Winter is using her platform to bring attention to this good cause.
Actually, you know what?
We’re glad that she’s using her boobs to do it. We said it.
Ariel Winter’s breasts received so much unwanted attention, even when she was a minor, that she had breast-reduction surgery.
It would have been more than understandable if she’d just covered herself in a sheet and hidden behind closed doors.
Instead, it looks like she’s comfortable with her body, and she’s flaunting her body in stellar photos.
Now she’s taking that a step further, and using her sex appeal — the thing that was used against her — to make the world a better place.
Ariel Winter has always been well-spoken, and it looks like she’s living her best life.
We’re just glad that she’s working for more than just her own happiness, you know?
She’s such a gift.
