Prosecutors surmised that in the murder case of Ramon Novarro, two young men – believing that a large sum of money was hidden in Novarro’s house – entered his home on October 30, 1968, looking for the loot. Authorities believe the brothers tortured Novarro for hours to force him to reveal where he’d hidden his money. Sadly, there was none. They left the house with only $20. The actor died of asphyxiation, by choking to death on his own blood. In this new series we will look back at the murder, the life of the actor and the path that put him on a collision course with tragedy.
