Horrorwood: True Crime in Tinseltown
True Crime
22 years old and fresh out of college, Lyric Benson had already experienced the kind of success that most actors work years to achieve. Not only was she appearing in commercials, she had a voiceover gig for Maybelline, co-starring roles on multiple TV shows and her face was on billboards and posters all over NYC. It seems her only flaw was having the misfortune of meeting Robert Ambrosino - an unemployed 30-something who claimed to work for the CIA and referred to himself as "Fast Bobby." Eek.
