robert blake is a hollywood legend. he shot to fame as star of the r. gang series and went on to a chilling role as murderer in any 1967 film "in cold blood" and won an emmy for a series. and it changed wen he met bonnie blakely the woman who became the mother 0 his child in 2000. less than six months later she was dead from a gunshot in a car outside a restaurant where she and blake had dinner. he was charged in his wife's mother and acquitted. then bonny lee bakley's children filed a civil suit against robert blake and he was found liable and ordered to pay $30 million and declared himself bankrupt. since then, robert blake has kept a very low profile and hasn't given a television interview for nearly a decade and written a book called "tales of a rascal." you haven't seen an interview like this. robert blake is a man on them, full of pent-up theory what he says has wrongfully happened to him. robert, how are you? >> well, i'm not nearly as interesting as you just described, but i'll take it and run like a -- holy toledo. do i look like that? >> you d

since then, robert blake has kept a pretty low profile. he hasn't given a television interview for nearly a decade. he wrote a book, "tales of a rascal, what i did for love." tonight, he breaks his silence. you haven't seen an interview quite like this. robert blake is a man on the edge, a man of pent-up fury and what he says has wrongfully happened to him. robert, how are you? >> well, i'm not as interesting as you just described. but i'll run with it. holy toledo. do i look like that? >> you do. >> you ought to take that raggedy [ bleep ] thing out in the yard and bury it. i look like that? no, i look like that. god damn it. okay, i'm sorry, i'm here. >> when was the last time you gave an interview? >> an interview? well, a couple of weeks ago at a motorcycle joint, a chick came up to me with a very interesting accent and she interviewed me for quite a while. but i told her i was on a -- >> on major television. >> [ bleep ] program and i wasn't available yet. but last time i was interviewed. i guess right here, the guy with the -- >> lar

back now with my exclusive interview with robert blake.e's raw, riveting and absolutely unpredictable, especially when i asked him about his wife. brake was tried and acquitted of her murder and as you see, he gets very angry and defensive when i bring it up. let's rewind a little bit. >> rewind? am i still on the stand? no, i'm teasing, go ahead. >> i want to get to the truth if i can. >> to the truth if you can. billion >> if you can. be careful. i want you to be careful because sometimes the guy in the ear tends to insult me a little bit. i want to get to the truth if i can. does that mean i'm lying to you? >> i don't know. are you? >> what do you think? >> i don't know. i thk we're going to get some questions where -- >> well, tell me where i'm lying. because if you don't know i'm telling you the truth, then you must have a little scratch in the back of your head about where i'm lying. >> i'm not saying you're lying. >> but you're saying i don't -- you don't know if i'm telling the truth. what the hell is the difference? >> i'm saying

rather like my encounter with robert blake.nate to have emerged unscathed from the experience. that's all for us tonight. "ac says he's being treated for what's described as a mood dirder. our kate baldwin is working her sources. she'll join us shortly. we're going to try to get to the bottom of this. it's very unusual for a sitting member of congress to disappear for weeks without any explanation. but before we get to that, we have a 360 exclusive. now, for months, as you know, we've been covering the investigation into the fast and furious gun-running operation. tonight, the mother and cousin of slain border patrol agent brian terry, the man you see right there, who was killed in connection with the gun running operation, they are speaking out on this program. speaking out for the first time since the indictments were unsealed on monday, charging five people in the shootout that resulted in the death of agent terry. the shootout, which happened in december of 2010. now, two guns were found at the scene of terry's murder. guns

let's turn to the robert blake case.ered the original trial of robert blake. >> i did. >> you've heard what his lawyer at the time said, tom. what do you think? >> i have great respect for tom mesereau. i think there's no question that the civil jury got it right when they said he was legally responsible for his wife's death. the criminal trial was largely about bashing the victim and bonny of course wasn't around to defend herself. she'd done a lot of things wrong in this life. none of that justified her being killed. the trial was filled with evidence of people who said robert blake approached them and asked them to kill his wife. it was filled with testimony from her sister for example, that said, if anything happened to me, robert blake did it. the criminal jury said they didn't see it beyond a reasonable doubt. the civil jury said yes, beyond a preponderance of evidence. you could see his anger, by the way, with you, piers. how easily he was triggered to anger. i mean, imagine how he was with the woman that he didn'

blake. i didn't know what to expect, and i'm not sure he did either.'s clear, he had a lot to say. his new book, "little rascal, what i did for love." i talked to him about that book. as you will see, that seemed to set him off again. >> i read your book. that's pretty much every detail of your life? >> here's my phony birth certificate. i don't even know when the hell i was born. >> this is about your life. >> it's not about bonny's life or my relationship with bonny. i made a deal to come here and talk about anything from the book. i excused you from that deal because i thought you were going to be cool. now you're trying to drive it into the ground. i don't know why. you're looking foolish. >> i'm not trying to drive anything into the ground. i'm asking questions about what i presumed to be a very important moment in your life. you've written a book about your life. >> i wrote a book about my life. i didn't write a book about that night and i didn't write a book about bonny. now, you can stay there the rest of your life if you want to, but i'm telli

mostly coming from blake, carol. promote his new memoir called "tales of a rascal," but piers did try to get him to open up about the murder of his wife. here is just one of the very combative exchanges between the two of them last night. >> you're just like the cops. there's noplace to get. keep him in jail until he dies because everybody who's dead is guilty. why would i marry her if i was going to kill her? i mean, i was worth $25 million. i could have hired somebody to kill her when she was in tibet or someplace. she drove all over the country. she was out selling and doing -- i could have hired somebody to follow her for 10 months and make her disappear so no one could ever find her, for christ's sake. i would go out to dinner to kill her? what the [ bleep ] is the matter with you? >> i didn't say you killed her. >> you didn't say i didn't. and you said it's all very interesting. what the [ bleep ] is so interesting about it? why don't you ask me some interesting questions? >> and he went to on to say it was bor

robert blake kidnapped the baby.g charges she filed. he contacted four hitmen to kill her. and the night of the murder he ran out of time, bonny wanted the baby back and he had to kill her. >> i had his lawyer for part of that period who was equally adamant that he didn't kill her. actually, bonny had this string of men, he was her tenth husband, she would be on the run, a conartist, all this kind of stuff which could easily lend itself to the theory as he put to me on the show, robert blake that it was one these disgruntled people she turned other in her past, who read about marrying a famous actor and came looking for her. how can you be sure that theory isn't the true one? >> it's not accurate. he married her about nine months before she moved to california. and when she moved to california, nobody knew, it wasn't reported anywhere, she had been about three or four days before he killed her. nobody knew she was in california. before that, she was in arkansas raising her three kids. for the last 11 months she didn'

blake. who is o? >> well, ophelia, she is the girlfriend of two pot growers, and he is very much a modern girl, but with a soul of times past, very much that like hippy, free loving sort of spirit. and she is somebody who is experienced a lot of privilege in her life, but also a lot of sadness and loss, she comes from a broken family and she finds a way to create her own family and that's in these two men. >> rose: she loves both of them? >> she does, she loves both of them equally. challenging. >> navy seal, served in afghanistan, and iraq and he comes back and he works with his best mate, aaron johnson's character, ben, who is basically this scientist that has created this highest strain of marijuana possible at the time, and these guys have this boutique and they work together and they share o and they are both in that trilogy of us, worked really well together and i don't know, it is just an amazing role to play and dive into. >> rose: it is a perfect life for them until -- >> it really is. >> i u
