Marlon Brando's son may face murder trial
LOS ANGELES — Marlon Brando planned to make a shrine out of the room where his daughter's boyfriend was stain, a lawyer said yesterday for the actor's son, who is charged with murdering the young Tahitan.
Defense attorney Robert Shapiro made the disclosure as he attempted to explain why Brando may have resisted efforts by detectives to force him to leave home weeks after the shooting disrupted the Brando household.
Brando's 32-year old son, Christian, is charged in the May 16 killing of Dag Drollet, 26, the boyfriend of a girl born to a boy to her father by Drollet.
"Marlon Brando wanted to turn the "Room Brando wanted to turn the decedent, light a candle and pay respects with his life," and get on with his life." Shapiro said.
The white-haired, portly actor sat in a front row of the courtroom for a second day during a preliminary hearing. At one point, he closed his eyes and extended his hands for a lengthy period, as if meditating.
Across the courtroom, Drolet's mother wept and other family members appeared pained as a firearms officer staged a facial wound that killed the victim.
Christian Brando is charged with murder and a weapons violation in Drolet's slaving.
His attorneys have said the shooting was an accident. Prosecutors said there was no evidence of a gunman in the shooting. Brando's Mullholland Drive estate.
They said paramedics found Drollet on a couch, with a cigarette lighter in one hand and a television remote control in the other.
On Monday, Municipal Judge Larry Fider refused to admit as evidence a taped police interview with Christian Brando made after the shooting. Fider agreed with a defense objection that the young Brando had not been completely advised of his rights.
Yesterday, Fidler refused to admit into evidence a statement from Cheyenne Brando taken before she left for Tahiti.
He declined to apply a portion of Proposition 115, approved by voters in June, that would have allowed admission of such hearsey state preliminary hearings without the witness present to be cross-examined.
Cheyenne Brando reportedly said she considered the killing of her boyfriend murder, not an accident.
He said that since the crime occurred May 16, before the initiative was passed, it could not be applied retractively.
The judge will decide after hearing evidence and testimony whether the case should be bound over to the Superior Court for trial.
