After the boyfriend of Marlon Brando’s daughter was fatally shot at the opulent Brando house overlooking Hollywood early on Thursday, the actor’s son was detained for questioning in connection with the crime.
The actor’s son told police that Drollet attempted to steal the gun before Christian Brando fired the single shot, despite the fact that police claimed there was no indication of a fight.
Investigators were informed by family members that the alleged abuse of Cheyenne Brando by Drollet was an isolated occurrence that happened just before the murder.
According to detectives, the young woman showed no signs of damage and was not thought to be gravely harmed. They did not disclose the due date or the identity of the father.
Why did Christian Brando shoot Cheyenne Brando’s boyfriend?
Christian Brando, 32, allegedly admitted to shooting Dag Drollet, 26, once in the head at around 10:40 p.m. on Wednesday after accusing Drollet vehemently of “slapping around” Christian’s half-sister Cheyenne Brando, 20, who was at the time pregnant.
How many years was Christian Brando sentenced?
Christian Brando served almost five years in prison before being released after entering a guilty plea to voluntary manslaughter and receiving a 10-year prison term.
In a 1991 interview with the Los Angeles Times, he claimed that he never intended to kill Drollet and that the gun accidently discharged as the two battled.
