Sunny von Bulow Dies

Martha (Sunny) von Bülow, who the New York Times described succinctly as "the American heiress who was first married to an Austrian playboy prince and then to a Danish-born man-about-society who was twice tried on charges of attempting to murder her," died on Saturday at the age of 76. She had been in a coma for nearly three decades. Bülow was a tabloid fixture in the '80s, when, as the Times wrote, "news media from around the world were irresistibly drawn to the drama of the beautiful heiress who lay in a twilight zone." She is survived by three children.
