A computer that was stolen from the home of Robert Blake’s attorney and contained information about the former “Baretta” star’s murder case turned up at a pawn shop, authorities said Tuesday.
Two teenage boys were arrested on suspicion of robbery after the laptop and other items were found in the Van Nuys section of Los Angeles.
Two weeks ago, the judge in the murder case delayed opening statements in the trial until Dec. 20 at the request of defense attorney M. Gerald Schwartzbach because of the Dec. 1 theft. Schwartzbach declined to say Tuesday whether any information was missing from the computer.
Blake, 71, is charged in the 2001 shooting death of his wife, Bonny Lee Bakley, whom he had married months earlier when DNA tests showed he was the father of her baby daughter.
The actor is free on $1.5 million bail.
