Jon-Erik Hexum

Popular for his leading role on the TV show Cover Up, Jon-Erik as a popular American actor and model with a large fan base especially with the females. He was successful in his career or so it seemed until on 12th October, 1984 he suddenly put an end to his life. While on the set of Cover Up, he was playing Russian roulette with a blank loaded gun. Although the blank that he fired didn’t manage to penetrate the brain, it pushed a piece of skull into his brain. This led to a massive hemorrhage that lasted 6 days. He was unable to recover from the injury and was pronounced brain dead by doctors on 18th of October. The incident shocked the entire crew that termed it an accident and not a suicide.
