Good. He was a piece of shit and a spineless murdering scumbag. Shows up at his ex's house with a rifle and shoots her and her mom. Fuck him.

How did Goodrum not break this? Must've had a lot of "I want to talk to your supervisor" calls to sort through at his call center job.

Well said.  Great post.

Those calls escalated quickly.

The old-school bodybuilders who are dying now are some of the most interesting and fucked up people in modern history, and the general public has no idea they even existed. I’d be very supportive of a series of biographies on some of these weirdos.

This is true. 

Bodybuilders in general are fairly screwed up.

This is true. 

Bodybuilders without exception are extremely screwed up, which is why they drop dead of overdoses, suicides, or become very sick way ahead of schedule

Saint Kits doesn't have the death penalty. Few countries do outside the middle east and the U.S.

Check his Documentary. Dude was one insecure and messed up individual. Hopefully his son doesn’t go down the same route.

SF1900 is the new insider here anyhow, and since he didn't confirm the story immediately we can assume it's false.

It’s 100% false.

Bertil is alive and well.

Bertil claimed gun fell, went off accidentally....picked up again after brief struggle, then went off again accidentally when he happened to be visiting his ex who had moved on and her mother, accidentally killing them both. Sounds reasonable.

This thread made me stumble across this old SI article...  a bit more detail on the Fox double murder. but also a run through of other 'shenanigans' of the period... :P

I remember most of the sh1t-show from that time, but I'd nearly forgotten about the Kimbrough murder...

Quote
"On June 20, 1993, after Ramsey told him in their San Francisco apartment that she'd had sex with another man and that the wedding was off, the 250-pound Kimbrough struck his 137-pound fiancee on the chin, wrapped an electrical cord three times around her neck, tying it in a knot, and stabbed her twice in the throat with a paring knife. He spent the night with her corpse while trying to kill himself by injecting into his neck a prescription diuretic, Lasix, and a household cleanser, Lysol. When police found him the next morning, with Ramsey lying at the foot of their bed, Kimbrough was holding a large kitchen knife to his throat and muttering, "She found someone else, another guy." He surrendered quietly."

And what's this about Lou Ferrigno punching out a woman's windshield in a Hulk-rage LOL?  :o 

Quote
Ferrigno, who had played the title role in the TV series The Incredible Hulk, began popping his buttons when he saw Bernadine Morgan, an L.A. meter maid, writing a parking ticket for his pickup. Just as he might have on television, Ferrigno came bounding out of his house. He screamed, "Don't cite that truck!" As Morgan slapped the ticket on the vehicle, Ferrigno ran up to her scooter, loosed a Hulkian growl and shattered its windshield with a single punch.

I never knew the Ferrigno story :). Most of those type of car stories seem to get attributed to Alzado and The Barbarian Brothers.  The Gordon Kimbrough one was pretty big here, then fizzled fast. They did get a short bit on on of our crime shows not too long ago -

.

Kimbrough got paroled not too long ago, and was part of some prisoners rights groups till he got chased into obscurity by angry victims rights advocates.

Cool.

That Bertil doc was shown in the early 2000s on Channel 4 ,which is a British terrestrial(US: network?) station.


This Schwarzenegger doc highlighting his early career in Britain, shown on the same channel, was pretty decent too.





Seems some producer or commissioning editor working at Channel 4 during that time,was a fan of bodybuilding.
