LOS ANGELES - Robert Blake has filed for bankruptcy, 2½ months after a civil court jury found he “intentionally caused” his wife’s death and awarded her children $30 million in damages.
Blake was acquitted in March in criminal court of murdering Bonny Lee Bakley. In Friday’s filing, he listed his biggest liabilities as the $30 million judgment, a $1,274,783 million federal tax bill and a $334,337 state tax assessment. The filing says he has assets of $100,001 and $500,000.
Blake’s civil attorney, Peter Ezzell, said he believes the former tough-guy actor is broke. “Otherwise, I wouldn’t have written off $200,000 in fees,” he said.
