Don't do the crime, if you can't pay the $30 million.
Robert Blake likely is in no mood to sing that or any tune after a civil jury in Burbank, California, ruled Friday that he intentionally caused the death of wife Bonny Lee Bakley, and that he should pay a whopping $30 million in damages to the slain woman's children.
The 72-year-old Blake now finds himself in O.J. Simpson straits--a man acquitted of murder charges in criminal court, but all but branded a killer in civil court and theoretically wiped out by an eight-figure damages bill. (In 1997, Simpson was ordered to pay $33.5 million to the families of waiter Ron Goldman and ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson.)
