Former SNL Comedian Committed Suicide? Anyone Remember Him?

I was stunned to see this story. Charles Rocket was his name. Anyone remember him from Saturday Night Live or any of the movies and tv shows? I vaguely remember him.

Says he was most famous for uttering an obscenity during a live SNL broadcast where Charlene Tilton hosted.

I don't really remember him. How odd though that his throat was slit and he was found in a field and they ruled it suicide.

Damn, he was on a lot of stuff. I always had a crush on him :( Self slitting of the throat isn't a very common form of suicide - maybe he left a note or something and that's why they're assuming that.

He was the bad guy from Dumb and Dumber.

What a strange way to kill yourself.

This news blurb reminds me of the one where they said former Power Rangers star dies and it was some extra who'd been on the show. Granted this guy was on SNL but I can't remember him either - even with the controversy about him getting fired.

Cyn

many comedians have problems you would never imagine

Damn... that guy was cool...

He used to play Bruce Willis' brother on MoonLighting as well

That sucks....R.I.P

Gotta love anyone fired for saying FUCK on SNL!

Shit, I feel old now. :1orglaugh

Ahhh, so it's THAT guy. :/

man the SNL curse continues

He was funny. too bad.

wasnt he in dumb and dumber?

bleeding yourself out is not a good way to go - must have been a very bad situation for him - RIP

Yeah I remember him. And that sounds like a MOB Suicide!!


He fell on a knife. 13 times.

Shit, accidents happen. :(

That sucks, I've seen him on the old episodes of SNL that they show late at night sometimes.

I don't remeber him at all
what skits did he used to do?:???

Rip.......

He was only on SNL for the '80-81 season.

Oh that's where I remember him..damn..fucked up man

May he rest in peace

He has been in a LOT of things over the years. I wonder what he was going through. People don't slit their own throats for no good reason.
