Date: 24th August 2001  Joan Crawford Murdered Her Husband?
Hollywood legend JOAN CRAWFORD has been accused of killing her
fourth husband - by her adopted daughter. CHRISTINA CRAWFORD
firmly believes that the icon's brief marriage to PEPSI-COLA
executive ALFRED STEELE is the key to the murder plot.  She even
alleges that Joan tried to kill her as a child. Christina says,
"He died so quickly after they were married. I have always
thought it was suspicious. I suspected foul play. There was
nothing wrong with him. "  The 62-year-old continues, "When I
heard about my stepfather's death, my first thought was 'My God,
she killed him!' She was capable of murder. She tried to kill me
when I was a child. I believe Al Steele's death was suspicious
and a cover-up took place. "  The couple married in 1956, but
Steele died just three years later. Christina says, "The
official cause of death was heart failure, but he'd just had a
company checkup and the doctor gave him a clean bill of health.
He was only 54 years old. " (
