Christa Helm

CBS News is reporting some intriguing details about Christa Helm, an aspiring Hollywood actress who was murdered in West Hollywood on Feb. 12, 1977. Christa apparently was the 1970’s version of todays Paris Hilton, she liked the Hollywood scene and enjoyed many parties. Christa Helms daughter reveals that Christa hung out with lots of famous people including Joe Namath, Mick Jagger and Warren Beatty.

Maureen Maher reported that Christa Helm also kept a secret love diary and tape recordings of her encounters with rich and famous celebrities. Did the diary and recordings play a role in her murder or was she a victim of a random crime? Investigators haven’t solved the Christa Helm murder case yet and the mystery continues. Perhaps a fresh look into the case can help police bring the killer to justice.
This is how Christa Helms daughter Nicole describes her mom…

“She had a charisma that was just overwhelming. She had warmth that made people drawn to her on a regular basis. She was powerful and strong and took no bull…she was a very complicated, beautiful human being”

Christa’s friends say that she kept a secret sex diary that included a rating system as well as secret film of her adult encounters with celebrities but it has never been determined if the diary or fils are behind her murder. Unfortunately the diary as well as most of the tapes went missing long ago.

In an ominous twist of fate Christa filmed a scene in which she was stabbed to death for the movie ‘The Legacy of Satan’ years earlier. Nobody could have predicted that she would ultimately meet her fate in that manner, or could they? The show 48 Hours has set blogs on fire with renewed interest in her life and in her murder case, perhaps someone reading a blog post today will remember a critical detail that solves this puzzle and brings peace to her now 40 year old daughter Nicole, lets hope so.
