What happened to Rose Lenore Sophia Blake?
Rose Lenore discussed her mother’s passing and her renowned father’s claimed involvement in the case in an interview with Inside Edition.
In May 2001, Blake, the face of the popular 1970s television series “Baretta,” was charged with the murder of his wife, Bonnie Lee Bakley. In 2005, a jury found him not guilty.
However, he was held accountable for her death in a civil trial. After 18 years, Rose has grown up and is speaking out. Delinah, Blake’s other daughter, reared Rose. They resided in Sherman Oaks, California, far from the public eye.
She said the first meeting was tense.
“I felt like waiting would not be a good option because I would regret not seeing him,” she said, adding it was “overwhelming, it was a lot to take in. We did not hug.”
She said she asked her father “not to talk” about Bakley because she “felt I wasn’t ready to handle that.”
She said she has “no idea” if he is responsible for Bakley’s death, saying, “I don’t remember it, obviously. I only know as much as everyone else knows.”
Rose has not kept in touch with her mother’s side of the family. At the murder trial, Bakley was depicted as a grifter.
“People have a lot of negative things to say about her and that is really hard to hear. I choose to just focus on the good,” she said of Bakley.
