#RebeccaSchaeffer #TrueCrime #Hollywood
Rebecca Schaeffer was an American actress and model. She began her career as a teen model before moving on to acting. In 1986, she landed a role on the CBS comedy My Sister Sam and appeared in several films including the black comedy SCENES FROM THE CLASS STRUGGLE IN BEVERLY HILLS.
At the age of 21, Rebecca Schaeffer was shot and killed by Robert John Bardo, a 19 year old obsessed fan who had been stalking her. Schaeffer's death helped lead to the passage in California of legislation aimed at preventing stalking.

I remember reading somewhere that after Bardo was incarcerated, he wrote a letter at some point to Mark David Chapman and Chapman said Bardo’s letter was “one of the most disturbing he’d ever read” and he never wrote back. Bardo must be a special kind of crazy if he’s even making the guy who shot John Lennon nervous.

The psycho killer is enjoying himself while recounting his killing of Rebecca, Very bizarre scene. The "detective" who gave Rebecca's home address to the killer, has her blood in his hands too. She made a terrible mistake coming outside to talk with that psychopath. It was horrific how he killed her, she was a total stranger, but he was obsessed with her. That man is pure evil and never should be in the streets again.

I remember this show and how sad it was when this happened. It’s so hard to believe that there was ever a time when getting the addresses of celebrities was so easy. I think I’ve read that other people actually advised Rebecca that she should live somewhere with better security, but I don’t think she saw herself as this huge star; she was down to earth in that way. Also, I’ve read that Pam Dauber was devastated by her death and never really got over it. The only bright spot in this whole thing is that her murderer won’t ever be able to hurt anyone else in this way.

She was looking at a long spell of a career which we will now never know how it developed. Her murder just seemed to act out his crime as if it was a fantasy to him. This guy is just beyond believe. Sadly to say I was just 18/19 when her life was ended by a demented fan. This really saddens myself. R.I.P. Rebecca, may god bless your soul.

It took me a couple of days to watch this one, for personal reasons. I really enjoyed My Sister Sam back then. I started watching it because of Pam Dawber, from Mork and Mindy, but Rebecca was the reason I kept watching - she was pretty, talented, charismatic, funny, and very charming. When this happened, it was the first time I had experienced the murder of celebrity who captivated me, and it really affected me deeply. I was so pissed that this guy was not only able to gain access to her, but to be given vital information to track her down. Even now watching his confession some 30+ years later I feel angry that he committed such a heinous act and was helped along the way. She had such a bright future and this nutjob took it all away in seconds. RIP Rebecca.

This is a very tragic story indeed, RIP Rebecca. Even more concerning is how our society since then had continue to go downhill, here and around the world with hate, war and with people in political offices/leaders not being held accountable for their actions etc. I hope in the future it will change for the best, but something tells me we will have to hit rock bottom before it does. Again, thank you for sharing your thoughts/video about this tragic event.

Just this morning my lady and I were watching TV about Florida, spring break ... growing up everyone loved spring break. Looked forward to it etc..... NOW, ANIMALS run the show. Spring break has become a scum zoo animal sewer with a bunch of shootouts every night. I agree with you. Every time we turn on the news Animals killing, raping, destroying once beautiful neighborhoods. I live in a once great neighborhood. My lady and I sit outside enjoying the backyard for 9 years. All of a sudden. Animals start showing up, moving in like ants on food. Blasting garbage music so loud the police are called every weekend. Music we cant even understand what the f**k they are saying at all. Our Town now is ruined. No one can say anything about it. You are correct. 100% POINT OF NO RETURN. No one. No politician, political party, sports star, entertainer etc ... will change it. The ANIMALS HAVE 100% taken over with dirt, death and scum and our country is completely ruined.

I love your videos. When I saw the crow I remembered something about crows. Crows show up to let you know that there are spiritual shifts happening around you and remind you to pay attention to the spiritual messages that are sent to guide you. They represent transformation, cycles, psychic tools, and insight into unseen realms. I feel that somehow Rebecca was there when you were making the video.

Watching Bardo's account of the murder is chilling: He seems to enjoy retelling with a degree of satisfaction.

I live on Houston and there has been SEVERAL murders due to private investigation firms giving out information. Now Investigation firms must allow for a "Cool down period" of 24 hours. In July 2002, the mother of two made headlines when she hit her 44-year-old husband David with her silver Mercedes-Benz and ran over him three times before stopping directly on top of his body. Clara had tracked her husband of 10 years and his mistress, Gail Bridges, to the Nassau Bay Hilton. She then ran him over outside the hotel. David’s daughter from a previous marriage, Lindsey Nicole Harris, who was in the car at the time of the killing, testified against her stepmother in the trial.In court proceedings, it was revealed that David had admitted to his affair even before Clara received a telephone tip that he and Bridges would be meeting that night at the hotel. On the day of David’s death, Clara hired the private investigative firm, Blue Moon Investigations, to follow her husband. Blue Moon surveillance crew captured David’s murder on videotape, which was used as evidence. I got married at that exact Hilton a few days before. INSANITY.

Happy to say I had a chance to visit. I was in Portland three years ago. I had a few hours before I had to return my rental car, and suddenly remembered that Portland was where she was buried. I quickly got online and found the name of the cemetery and put it in the GPS. Pretty easy to find. It is in a residential neighborhood on top of a hill. It's close to another bigger cemetery, if I am remembering correctly. But the church and the little cemetery are very sandwiched in with houses. I remember driving past a guy outside in his yard and he gave me a warm smile. I almost got the impression he was used to visitors driving around looking like they are trying to find it....and the reason why. That could be my mind making up stuff though. When you go in there someday, basically just walk a straight line ahead from the gate, to the paved path going through the middle of the cemetery. Her grave is close to that path.

I'm her age and remember when this happened. It was very surreal.. Pam Dawber had said she wanted her to continue living at a cottage on her property but she insisted on an apartment. She didn't realize i guess how famous she was or how crazy people can be. Because of her religion (Jewish) they had to follow Jewish law and bury her within 24 hours and so they kept showing the family the next day as it was still sinking in that she had been killed and they were already burying her. So tragic. Beautiful girl beautiful family and it is nice you did this video so people who didn't know of her can learn her story.

This is failure of parenting, a failure of order in society. Once this is problem it is very hard to fix. The USA like all countries has financial ups and downs we are not different, did people in Japan, Korea and China not suffer during COVID of course even worse as they got very little help from their government if not nothing at all and look at what happened here in the USA, riots, destruction, chaos, why?

Blows my mind that their are nutty fans out there in the world with... "Blown minds"... I'm SO sorry, that Rebecca's universe had to take this unfortunate turn. These justice system debacles could be immensely avoided--- so sad that people have to wait for a train wreck to do anything about them.
