Yes, he was 83 and had cancer, but sad still. I enjoyed his show "Power, Priviledge, and Justice" He was a great victims advocate.

I loved Dominick Dunne and his books....later his show. I will miss him. I still have his show on T. Cullen Davis taped. I met T. Cullen shortly after he was acquitted and he asked me to have dinner with him and his (latest) wife. Not the one he murdered, obviously. I was scared crapless of that man and wasn't about to get within arm's length of him. For all I knew, he was scoping me out to be Mrs. the 4th. I was blonde and well-endowed, and those seemed to be his main criteria. I gave a curt reply, turned on my heel and got away from him as fast as I could. His eyes were as cold as ice and I had zero doubt he could off someone if he wanted. He was one scary man. When he smiled, the smile did not reach his eyes, if that makes sense.

I wish DD had written a book on T. Cullen, but he didn't. So I'll just have to save that Power, Privilege and Justice episode forever, I suppose.

I liked Dominick Dunne. He always shone a light on injustice. I'm sorry to hear he's passed on.

Maybe he's with his daughter now......

I enjoyed all of his stuff. Did anyone here read "the Two Mrs. Grenvilles, his novel? http://search.barnesandnoble.com/The-two-Mrs-Grenvilles/Dominick-Dunne/e/9780345430564/?itm=1&usri=1

Very entertaining, supposedly fact based on a true case.

I think "The Two Mrs. Grenvilles" may have been the first DD book I read. I loved it. Most (maybe all) of his books were based on actual cases, including that one.

I love Dominick Dunne. A great man. I admire people like him and John Walsh who've suffered terrible personal tragedies and go on to educate the public about the justice system.

This is so sad. I loved all of his books.

What? Oh no! I love his books and watching him on Court TV.

How sad, Ted Kennedy died too.

The story about his daughter was so sad. Her murder was what got him started on getting justice for murder victim's families.

I loved the book but hated the movie.

RIP Dominick Dunne

I loved the book but hated the movie.

In general that's always the case with me, I read the book, love it, then find the movie to be lacking. Examples for me were The Shining, 'Salems Lot, The Generals Daughter (although I always love John Travolta), Amityville Horror, etc.
