Wrestler Jimmy 'Superfly' Snuka Being Investigated For The Death Of Girlfriend 30 Years Ago.

Remember him? Back in the day people loved him and i for one mistakenly called him 'Super-fly Sandoka' i don't know if you did, but here is the sad news now about him.

On May 10, 1983, a few hours after Snuka had performed at a WWF TV taping at the Lehigh County Agricultural Hall in Allentown, Pennsylvania, Snuka placed a call for an ambulance. When emergency personnel arrived on the scene at Room 427 of the George Washington Motor Lodge in nearby Whitehall Township, they found Snuka’s girlfriend, Nancy Argentino, injured. She was transported to Allentown's Sacred Heart Medical Center, where she died shortly after of "undetermined craniocerebral injuries." Deputy Lehigh County coroner Wayne Snyder said, “Upon viewing the body and speaking to the pathologist, I immediately suspected foul play and so notified the district attorney." Snuka was the only suspect involved in the subsequent investigation.

Charges were not pressed against Snuka, although the case was left officially open, meaning no official judgment on whether the incident was accidental or homicide was ever made. In 1985, Argentino’s parents won a $500,000 default judgment against Snuka in U.S. District Court in Philadelphia, although Snuka appears not to have ever paid, claiming financial inability to do so. County District Attorney Jim Martin has ordered that the case, which is still open, be reviewed by his staff. Argentino, 23, of Brooklyn, N.Y., died of traumatic brain injuries consistent with a moving head striking a stationary object, according to the autopsy. Autopsy findings show Argentino suffered more than two dozen cuts and bruises, a possible sign of "mate abuse", on her head, ear, chin, arms, hands, back, buttocks, legs and feet. Forensic pathologist Isidore Mihalakis wrote at the time that the case should be investigated as a homicide until proven otherwise, according to the autopsy. On January 28, 2014 Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin announced that a grand jury will now investigate the mysterious death.
