Pantera, and it's questionable whether the murder was self defense on his father's part or not. Still, I find it hard to believe a loving father would kill his own son even to save his own life.

Loving father? You should read up on that.
"My husband never wanted Marvin, and he never liked him. He used to say he didn't think he was really his child. I told him that was nonsense. He knew Marvin was his. But for some reason, he didn't love Marvin, and what's worse, he didn't want me to love Marvin either. Marvin wasn't very old before he understood that."
.....
"Gay also would question his children on Biblical passages, administering whippings if they answered wrong. Gay's children also suffered from bed wetting, which led to more beatings.
Gay administered most of his harshest punishments on Marvin, Jr. According to Marvin's sister, Jeanne, between the age of seven well into his teenage years, Marvin's life consisted of "brutal whippings"."

I think it's cute you perceive Marvin Sr as a loving father. He was a controlling abusive tyrant who was jealous of his son's success.

Pantera was a metal band that was active between 1981 and 2003 but had their greatest success during the 1990s.

Their guitarist, "Dimebag Darrell" Abbott, went on to form a band called Damageplan but was shot to death onstage by a crazed fan in 2004. :(

Lee Harvey Oswald (even though he was more infamous then famous, per say.)
Former Secretary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton, was shot in a duel by sitting Vice President Aaron Burr, on July 11, 1804.
I guess I would count dueling as murder.
May 16, 1777: Button Gwinnett, signer of the Declaration of Independence, dueled his political opponent Lachlan McIntosh; both were wounded, Gwinnett died three days later.

I was on FB and The HollywoodCollector's Show posted a flyer about a supposed brutal attack in Joey Heatherton. They didn't kill her but they did yell that she was worth more dead than alive....
I did a quick google search and saw nothing of the attack so not sure if it's really new news or fake news. Either way I found out that Joey has really fallen (more like crashed) from fame. Drug addiction. Court appearances. And....apparently.... Moshe beat up a neighbor with a shoe ;D
Aw Joey. It's not tragic it's just cliche
