Cheryl Crane, the daughter of actress Lana Turner, stabbed one of her mother’s boyfriends to death during a domestic struggle at the age of 14 in 1958. It was considered a justifiable homicide and she was deemed to have been protecting her mother.
At approximately 8:00 p.m. on April 4, eight days after the Academy Awards ceremony, Johnny Stompanato arrived at Lana Turner’s rented home at 730 North Bedford Drive in Beverly Hills, California, which she had just begun leasing a week prior.
The two began arguing heatedly in the bedroom, during which Stompanato threatened to kill Turner, her daughter, and her mother, as well as making "gangster threats" that involved breaking Turner’s bones and slashing her face with a straight razor.
