Porn actor suspected of murder jumps off cliff, dies after daylong standoff with police

Only in Los Angeles would a porn actor kill a colleague at a social gathering for the studio with a prop Samurai sword, wound another, hold off police (with sword still in his possession) most of the day, then jump off a cliff when a 'less lethal weapon' was used to subdue him, whatever that means. He apparently started the whole thing because he'd been fired and was asked to leave his lodgings, which were being provided by the studio. This is definitely the case of someone who snapped big time, although he'd had previous weapons violations, so perhaps not unpredictably. I am sorry that he's dead (and that his colleague is as well, of course), but it just underscores how odd things can be in both the film industry and the Hollywood area. I think making money off of fantasy can sometimes draw you away from the real world, or at least the world the rest of us live in.
