This Parisian actress and singer married the crooner Andy Williams when he was 33 and she was 19. They had three children but after the couple divorced in 1975, she took up with an Olympic skier named Vladimir “Spider” Sabich, Jr. Claudine Longet’s relationship with Sabich ended on 21st March 1976 when she shot and killed him in the bathroom of his Starwood, Aspen home. She was eventually convicted on a minor charge of misdemeanour criminal negligence and ordered to pay a small fine. Claudine Longet spent just 30 days in jail and was even allowed to paint her cell pink. She married her defence attorney, Ron Austin, in 1985 and though an out of court legal settlement with the Sabich family prevents her from discussing or writing about the case, still today, this femme fatale’s music allegedly sells like hotcakes.

There was a woman who lost her mind and way through indifference, she should rather have painted her face pink.
You are right. If she’d stuck to face painting, she wouldn’t have ended up in such a fine mess and that poor man might still be alive.
She looks like Catherine Meyer (Lady Meyer). Send in the dogs.
I could not possibly comment.
Why write this now? Claudine is an innocent woman who has been punished enough already.
Have you not got any sympathy for her boyfriend? He died as a result of her having that gun in her hand.
Murderess. A murdereress who did not pay her crime, a murderer who received favor treatment. Life does not forget and settle balances multiplying by a thousand and according to their times, generation after generation.
