Innocent until proven guilty, just ask Casey Anthony.

I wouldn't say it opens up any doors, he was deemed unfit to stand trial because of his deteriorating mental state. I wouldn't say that just because they dropped the charges that instantly opens the doors. Hogan had his name cleared months ago and they're still walking on egg shells about this. This guy was facing third-degree murder charges, so wish in one hand, crap in the other see which gets filled first. I wished to crap in my hand and by god it came true.  |

The dude got off on murdering someone not once but now twice. WWE should not touch the idea of making anything with his name. He was not found innocent but incompatent. His trial has been all-over the news, that is negative press they do not need.

Maybe years from now, but I wouldn't expect it any sooner than that.

As much as I'd love a barefoot/trunks look, I don't see it happening. Hollywood Hogan is much more likely at this point, but you never know.

I'd love a barefoot stripe trunks Snuka, but I don't see it happening.

He wasn't charged. Even though he could have done it, there is no way of knowing if you don't go to trial and get sentenced. He was charged. Plus, its not like he was acquitted of the charges. He couldn't stand trial so he got off. A majority of people presume he's guilty regardless if court of law deems him guilty or not. The first figure got made because this incident wasn't really that well known. Now that its out, there is no way Mattel will produce a figure of someone who is suspected of murder. Kind of sad that prosecuting Sunka isn't worth the effort anymore. I get it and I'd do the same considering he'd get health care paid by tax payers. |

It's not that its not worth the effort, it's that he isn't mentally capable to stand trial and they don't see him ever coming back to his senses so they dropped it. as for the figure I would of loved a barefoot one but I can also live without. |

Apparently she hit her head (could of been pushed by snuka, who knows) on some kind of parking divider or cement. He then brought her back to the hotel instead of getting medical attention.

I met Jimmy and his son Deuce back in 09 and had NO idea of the murder beforehand but he was a sweet guy but yet id definitely be conflicted to buy a Snuka should it come out again.

I saw him like 18 months ago and he was perfectly healthy looking but a lot can change at that age... and when you are on trial for murder

So torn on this. A barefoot Snuka is such an iconic figure to make.
However, just because the charges were dropped doesn't mean he's not guilty. Of course since he wasn't convicted he's not necessarily guilty either.
If I was a juror, based on what I've heard, I'd say he is guilty. But the charges were probably dropped because justice won't be served at this point anyway.
Even if he didn't murder his girlfriend, I have heard other stories of him getting roid rage and beating women. Can't support that.
Don't think we'll be getting a figure of him again.

All he really says is brudda and love you, but he was able to carry on full conversation. When I 1st heard of the "not fit to stand trial" I instantly thought he was working the judge/lawyers/system. I've met him like 10 times and hung out 3 times. Always just seems like a sweet old guy...but ya never know with drugs and steroids running through his system. |

I can live without it. I'm getting less and less willing to accept the character versus the man. (The Hogan thing is really unnerving.) I believe in innocent until proven guilty, but that doesn't mean I have to want his figure. I'm a huge '80s mark, but I'm fine leaving Snuka in the '80s.
