Actor who played the lead in the
tv show Baretta for many years, although chances are this was before your time. When he was a kid, Blake was a child star on the old
Little Rascals black and white short films. That's even before
my time.
Update 02.07.03: He was also accused of either murdering his own wife or having had her murdered by someone else. Rather sad, really.
Update 11.29.05: avalyn points out that "He was acquitted of the murder charge, although his wife's family has engaged him in a civil suit for her wrongful death. The civil suit is currently ongoing." This sounds
familiar.
