Eccentric multimillionaire and alleged child molester Stanley Marsh 3 dead at 76


The Cadillac Ranch created by Stanley Marsh 3.

Stanley Marsh 3, the Texas Panhandle’s merry prankster, media tycoon and eccentric multimillionaire , died about 2:30 p.m. today at age 76, a Marsh family attorney said.

In recent years, Marsh stayed out of the public eye after he was incapacitated by a series of strokes and in 2012 was indicted six times on eight counts of sexual performance by a child, four counts of sexual assault of a child and two counts of indecency with a child.

Child molester? Don't know, but he was a kidnapper. He'd put signs up that said "Steal this sign" and when some kid did, they would lock him in a chicken pen.

He settled on that one, too.

Maybe some of that family money can go for something good instead of just weird.

His family was also named as defendants in those lawsuits.
