This post was inspired by a post 4 days ago from user SethRich2017 (not sure how to link to usernames...)
The post brought up the death of actor River Phoenix and whether this was retaliation for him bringing to light The Children of God cult, including the rampant child sexual abuse taking place in the cult. I was a big fan of River Phoenix and had never heard anything about him being murdered, so I've started researching quite a bit.
To my surprise, I found an interview from famous director Peter Bogdanovich, who directed River Phoenix's last movie "A Thing Called Love." In the following article, Bogdanovich asserts with surprising certainly that he believes River Phoenix was murdered. Here is the link:

So thanks to user SethRich2017, I am beginning to see a whole lot deeper into River Phoenix's death. Could it really be a coincidence if he were in fact murdered, and this was also shortly after publicly discussing the childhood sexual abuse he suffered in The Children of God Cult? Which, for those who don't know, does still exist, and is now called "The Family International." Creepy, huh?
So now we have at least 2 or 3 big names in Hollywood who are saying that they think it was foul play. Could it be that River got to close to exposing elite pedophile rings, and they killed him for it?

There was always something close to the truth about his performance and story line in My Own Private Idaho. There was one scene where it didn't feel like he was acting that was his life.

I will have to rewatch it-- haven't seen it since the early 90's. What about the character do you think is similar to River? I think I remember the main characters were gay.

I checked and the scene I am referring to is the camp fire scene which he actually wrote himself. So thats the scene I remember where he appears to be being himself rather than acting.
