With this line of thinking, if the "true" story were revealed (meaning, a deeper fabricated RJ story), the public might say in response, "She lost her mind and died because of her crazy decision to take the dinghy out alone. Well that's what you get when you go crazy." So RJ looks like he's being a caring former husband trying to protect Natalie's legacy from being tarnished by a crazy episode where she got herself killed. Like so many other things RJ says, he pretends he's protecting someone else -- but he's really protecting himself.<br /><br />...from KBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3866262301035927730.post-89759123948857304152010-09-27T17:35:03.550-04:002010-09-27T17:35:03.550-04:00WOW, Marti, thanks for sharing that with us and th...WOW, Marti, thanks for sharing that with us and thanks for never giving up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3866262301035927730.post-77664858851867765002010-09-27T16:14:17.423-04:002010-09-27T16:14:17.423-04:00ColinS

Being incriminated even by Rasure is an awkward position for Dennis, one he has never understood, but definitely felt he had to work around. Rasure uses Dennis as his own personal scapegoat for having done a horrid job in investigating this case. <br /><br />Dennis has never regretted telling the truth in this case but has often paused for the well-being and safety of his family, too. I honestly feel sorry for the position Dennis has arrived at. When we interviewed with the media last year, we told the truth, but the truth is so damaging that the media is even afraid of it. We are between a rock and a hard spot, and it isn't easy. We know what we need to do and we are doing it. We're sorry for the lack of cooperation from the media and the law, but that is not our doing and never has been. Dennis is NOT "the blame." <br /><br />Dennis's children really never knew about this entire saga. After GNGS was released, Dennis's daughter asked him a lot of questions. Dennis told me she was really interested in this story that has always followed her father and then he explained to me how he took her aside with a copy of the book and opened it up to the photograph of him and Natalie. He took the time to explain how dear Natalie was to him, and then told her about Natalie's movie career, explaining that Natalie will be known forever due to movies such as "Rebel Without a Cause" and "West Side Story." He then took the time to tell her all about Natalie, how professional she was, how kind she could be, what a good friend she was, and how unnecessary it was for her to die. He said he will never forget Natalie and that he finally feels relieved that the truth is explained about the night she died. His daughter asked if Natalie was a nice woman, and Dennis said that brought tears to his eyes as he explained that he hopes his daughters will always remember how nice Natalie was to their father and how sad it is for the way she left this world.Marti Rullihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16585177424159444524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3866262301035927730.post-33867033595188721482010-09-27T15:58:07.438-04:002010-09-27T15:58:07.438-04:00Marti, by mere chance, I arrived at your blog, and...Marti, by mere chance, I arrived at your blog, and your quest for truth as continued from your book, GNGS. Sadly our life (the world in total) experiences are filled with people who would do murder and "get away." I was browsing the web as is my morning routine of getting a sampling of some of the news around the world (entertainment industry, also). I read a little blurb on the season premier of 48 Hours and Harold Dows last report he worked on before he died of health complications recently. Then, I became curious of the released pictures taken by the "photographer" "Dating Game killer," Rodney Alcala. The given reason for the police department was to get any information identifying anyone in those pictures that could possibly have been missing since those picture were taken more that thirty years ago! It is in this same manner of quest Natalie Wood's dead MUST be re-opened for proper investigation.<br /><br />Robert Wagner's own words of the timeline do NOT add up to the truth of what happened. <br /><br />Keep shining the spotlight Marti Rulli. Thank you for your determined and exhausting efforts in the name of silent victims EVERYWHERE. Godspeed.

I'm sure he's aware of some of the labels that have been stamped on him as a result of his trying of to set the record straight. <br /><br />If Dennis wanted fame and money there would have been smoother roads for him to take. He was exposed to some of the most famous people in show business. IMO, Dennis has showed Natalie more respect and honor than Wagner has and I think it's safe to say that Wagner owes her more than Dennis does.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3866262301035927730.post-89041996883222368432010-09-27T12:47:51.893-04:002010-09-27T12:47:51.893-04:00Thank you everyone, for confirming my suspicions. ...Thank you everyone, for confirming my suspicions.

There are probably people eager to agree with you elsewhere so I do not understand why you choose this blog to post your antagonizing, unfounded claims.<br /><br />I didn't know Natalie but Dennis did for seven years, and Lana knew her all of her life. You are not describing Natalie accurately. You are presenting your own interpretations of things you've read and heard.<br /><br />Natalie was not a fame whore. You can trust the people here who've set you straight on that. I'd also like to inform you that just because Natalie's daughters haven't pursued the investigation, there are more people than family deserving the truth in this case. Dennis was a PARTICIPANT of the weekend cruise that took Natalie's life. He's been dragged through the mud, accused, slandered, and laughed at. HE deserves the truth to be known in this death case more than anyone involved as he has ended up the scapegoat for the case. A death as high-profile as Natalie's doesn't stay limited to "what the family wants." <br /><br />As for Dennis seeking fame, here I can tell you how dead wrong you are. Dennis never once got caught up in the fame of those he worked for as well as after the tragic weekend. In fact, he was so nonchalant about being Natalie's skipper and friend that it was almost unbelievable for his friends and family who thought much more of it than Dennis ever did. Did Dennis like his position? He LOVED it. DId he take advantage of it? NEVER. Maybe you should read GNGS again and hear what you are reading this time because you are certainly getting into territory that is blatantly ignorant with your last few comments. <br /><br />If you can't conduct yourself at this blog by sticking to facts about the death case, I will delete your posts, as I can't let this blog turn into an innuendo-filled site as the half-truths have corrupted so many other sites, including my book pages. Nothing astounds me more than that: people at my book pages spewing their ignorance simply because they are unwilling to admit the real reason they defend the lies. Contacting me has never been an option for them. Why? Talking person to person is simply beyond their scope so they book-bash instead. They know if they contact me they might get too close to reality. I'm in NO fantasy world...over Natalie or ANYTHING about this case. It goes way beyond Dennis.<br /> <br />There are plenty of places online where you might fit better with the people who seem intellectually-challenged in understanding true personality and the facts behind this tragic story. <br /><br />Here, the facts are crystal clear, and we are way beyond debating the drivel. Hope I made it crystal clear what I'm saying.Marti Rullihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16585177424159444524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3866262301035927730.post-31162451429093682652010-09-27T11:08:39.381-04:002010-09-27T11:08:39.381-04:00the current/modern term is fame whore.

We're all united and the jabs at Natalie are unnecessary even though it's ok to be honest about how you review "RJ and Natalie" as a couple. I'm sure they experienced everyday marital challenges and had their fair share of arguments and differences, but this woman ended up dead in the Pacific. We're totally dealing with a horse of a different color relating to this tragedy. There's no room for bickering between members of the same team. Some treat this travesty of justice more seriously than others, but the majority of us always show complete respect for Natalie. No one can fault her for a lack ability in character judgment. Wagner may not be a top-notch professional actor but we all know he's an excellent fraud in real life. He showered Natalie with adoration, something she probably never recognized as one of the flaws in possessive egotistical personality. She was his trophy wife. Deep down he was jealous and envious her, as comments riddled throughout his book indicate. As previously pointed out, he showed more emotion for his dog dying than he did for "the love of his life." Actually, he bumped Natalie from that status too.
