Did you know Jane’s Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro’s mom was murdered? I feel like I knew this but its one of those things I remember hearing but just never stuck with me.
In 1983 Constance Navarro and her friend Sue Jory were murdered in Los Angeles by John Riccardi, he was Constance’s estranged boyfriend. Eight years went by before he was finally captured, with help from the TV show America’s Most Wanted and a viewer’s tip. Riccardi originally received the death penalty, but was later re-sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
The documentary about the murders, Mourning Son, was produced and written by Navarro and hit video on demand on December 1st, you can check out the trailer for Mourning Son on YouTube and by watching it below, definitly looks like something I will checking out on demand.
