Meanwhile, Lana called a doctor.

Soon, Cheryl's father, Lana's mother, the doctor, and a lawyer all arrived at the scene.

Both Lana's mother and the doctor tried to resuscitate Johnny to no avail.

Finally, anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours after the stabbing, depending on your source, they called the police.

And with the police came Lana's greatest fear, the media.

One paparazzo even talked his way into the house, standing with the cops in the bedroom crime scene.

Soon, the whole world would know Lana Turner's mobster boyfriend was dead, killed by her teenage daughter.

Within days, the state charged Cheryl with murder.

All eyes were on the coroner's inquest.

Basically a trial.

Think the old Hollywood equivalent of the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial.

Or maybe more appropriately, the OJ trial.

Lana's testimony aired live on ABC.

Audiences at home saw Lana detail Johnny's abuse.

She also revealed to the world that Johnny was actually on his way out of the house when Cheryl killed him.

Remember how Cheryl saw his hand raised above her mother, possibly with a weapon?

He was actually holding a clothes hanger raised high so its suit jacket and shirt wouldn't drag on the floor.

He'd finally listened to Lana.

The detail racked Cheryl with guilt.

Cheryl never appeared on the stand.
