Stories are now surfacing that sometime during the last few weeks, the cause of Natalie Wood’s passing on her official death certificate was changed from “accident” to “undetermined.” In 1981, the actress’ body was found near the yacht she had been on with her husband Robert Wagner and friend Christopher Walken.
Though there was always speculation about the cause of death, it was officially ruled an accident at the time. Last year, the case was re-opened when new evidence surfaced about the cause of Wood’s death. But that investigation was declared a bust and ended as quickly as it began. Now reports are out that sometime in late June, the death certificate had quietly been changed without a lot of fanfare. According to TMZ, investigators have found no new evidence but feel that because of the bruising on her body the case should have been marked as “undetermined” all along.
Of course rumors have been circulating for over 30 years that hubby Wagner was responsible for his wife’s death after an argument broke out. Others speculate that it was, indeed, an accident, brought on by a fight over the insinuations that Wood and Walken were having a fling. No one knows for sure what happened that night, but it’s unlikely the answer will ever be revealed. What do you think: Was Natalie Wood murdered?

+5I remember watching this story unfold and not being satisfied by the verdict. I wasn't convinced she just fell overboard unnoticed. I was a fan of her work and saddened by her death.
During the making of "Splendor In The Grass," Natalie almost drowned during a scene at a water resevoir, when she fell in, accidentally. And when she had a bathroom scene where she had to be in a bathtub, she had didn't want to be in that tub because she was afraid of drowning.
Robert Wagner's explanation to the police just does not make sense. And even Lana Wood, Natalie's younger sister, wasn't able to get an explanation from her brother-in-law about what happened the night her sister died.
Also, following Natalie Wood's death, Robert Wagner married actress Jill St. John, who had been previously married to a Revlon heir. She had been collecting alimony for years. Natalie Wood owned a lot of property in Beverly Hills. When she died, Robert Wagner inherited her entire estate. He is now a VERY WEALTHY MAN. For Jill St. John to have given up her lifetime alimony from the Revlon heir, Robert Wagner must have inherited a LOT of money.
To this day, Robert Wagner and Christopher Walken will not talk about the night Natalie Wood died.
And I guess Robert Wagner is hiring a LOT of lawyers right now!
