It has been a difficult Sunday. Earlier we reported the death of Bishop Eddie Long. The pastor died after years of battling cancer.
In 2015, Snuka was charged with third-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter. The charges were from the 1983 death of Snuka’s girlfriend, Nancy Argentino. She was 23-years-old and had cuts and bruises all over her body. On January 3, 2017, Jimmy was deemed unfit to stand trial.
Like Eddie Long, Snuka died from cancer. Once a person has cancer, stress will support the growth of the cancer. The legal battles that Eddie Long and Jimmy Snuka caused stress which most likely supported the growth of their cancer.
