A jury in the Valley ruled today that Robert Blake is liable for the death of his wife, Bonny Lee Blakely. The ex-actor was ordered to pay $30 million in damages to her children. Like O.J. Simpson, Blake was acquitted of murder but gets stuck with the bill anyway. Blake's testimony hurt him, since lawyers said Friday that jurors admitted they "hated him" on the stand. (In a civil trial he had no right not to testify if called.)
