Sandy Bentley, It was nine year ago when a link between Killing of two men Tardio and Monsoon in L.A. and that time playboy's bunny the"Sandy Bentley's jewellery was made. Tardio and Monsoon was found dead in a Mercedes SUV.They were shot from close range and had been trying to burn the car.
The CBS show “48 Hours Mystery: “Playing with Fire” was aired on Saturday night and has inspired fresh interest in the killing of part-time model and doorman Michael Tardio and his friend, Chris Monsoon.Now investigators hope that a new show and a $75,000 reward will help them finally crack the case.
During the investigations detectives could find no evedence about the killer and no one in the neighborhood heard shots fire. It is considered that the murder took place somewhere else and the bodies were driven to another location.
It is believed that both victims were trying to sell $750,000 worth of jewellery on the night they were killed. These jewellery belong to Sandy Bentley the Tardio's girlfriend and former playboy bunny. Sandy Bentley had got these jewellery from his ex-boyfriend Mark Yagalia who claims to have been “madly in love” with her. She, in turn was “madly in love with his money”.
Yagalia estimates that he spent between $6 or $7 million on Bentley during the 13 months they dated. The money went on a house, furs, cars, Rolex watches and jewellery, including an exact diamond and ruby replica of the necklace and earring set Richard Gere gives to Julia Roberts in the film Pretty Woman, costing around a quarter of a million dollars.
Before meeting Yagalia, Bentley was a live-in girlfriend of Hugh Hefner at his Playboy mansion, together with her twin Mandy. According to Hef’s other girlfriend Izabela St.James, who went on to write a book about her experiences at the mansion, Sandy did not treat the octogenarian well and cheated on him repeatedly. Eventually Yagalia found his “ultimate trophy” and Sandy left Hef for good.
The ill-gotten jewels that he was to give her would later cause the killing of two innocent men. Tardio and Monsoon were trying to unload the stash, which was illegally paid for by Yagalia clients’ money and not his own, as federal authorities were under orders to seize it.
Police hope the CBS show will encourage those who have more information to come forward. “There are people who knew something but maybe were fearful,”
