Ever wonder about the relatively unknown people made famous not before, but because of circumstances surrounding their deaths ?? For instance Ron Goldman, unknown I believe before death, but because of the circumstances has pretty immediates name and face recognition. Abigail Folger and Jay Sebring, the LaBiancas not really know or famous per se before death, but achieved recognition because of death.
I always wonder about the everyday person that achieves a certain amount of recognition, not really during life, but because of death. If any of you know stories surrounding people such as this, I believe it could make for an interesting thread !!
