Obsessed Fan Faked Scorsese Aide Role, Stabbed Actress Theresa Saldana 10 Times

• Actress Theresa Saldana, known for 'Raging Bull', was brutally attacked and stabbed 10 times outside her West Hollywood apartment in 1982 by obsessed fan Arthur Richard Jackson.
• Jackson, a drifter from Scotland, faked being Martin Scorsese's assistant to obtain Saldana's home address from her mother, then traveled to Los Angeles to carry out the attack.
• Delivery driver Jeff Fenn intervened, wrestling the hunting knife away from Jackson, likely saving Saldana's life; she required emergency surgery and 26 pints of blood.
• Jackson was convicted of attempted murder and sentenced to 12 years, later extended for sending threatening letters to Saldana from prison.
• Despite the trauma, Saldana rebuilt her life, married Phil Peters, had a daughter, and continued her acting career, earning a Golden Globe nomination for 'The Commish'.
