In 1972, Elvis Presley was convicted of the murder of karate instructor Mike Stone, a mutual acquaintance who had an affair with his 'wild child' wife Priscilla Beaulieu. In confessing the crime, Elvis raged obsessively: 'There's too much pain in me... Mike Stone [must] die. In her book 'Elvis and Me', Priscilla said that she was too humiliated to reveal the whole truth to the world during the trial. Presley, having learned of the second affair with her karate instructor, forced himself on her in his Las Vegas hotel room, telling her, 'This is how a real man makes love to a woman.'
