Canada body-parts murder victim identified
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 6 (UPI) -- Actor Robert Pastorelli was reportedly under investigation for the slaying of his girlfriend when he died last year, the New York Daily News reported Sunday.
A law enforcement source said on an episode of "Inside Edition" airing Monday that the 1999 death of 25-year-old Charemon Jonovich "was in no way an accident or suicide. ... [Pastorelli] committed the murder."
Pastorelli, whose credits include TV sit-com "Murphy Brown" and Kevin Costner's film "Dances with Wolves," died of a drug overdose last March at age 49.
Jonovich, mother of Pastorelli's daughter, was found shot in the head at the Pastorelli's Hollywood Hills home. Her death was initially investigated as an accident or suicide.
However, five months after Jonovich died, the Los Angeles coroner changed her official cause of death from "undetermined" to "homicide" based on further police investigation, "Inside Edition" said.
