EXCLUSIVE: Hear Edward Furlong's Wife's Call to 911
Oct. 27 2009, Published 5:56 a.m. ET
This is the 911 call made by Edward Furlong’s estranged wife Rachael Kneeland.
In the call Kneeland says she is concerned for the welfare of her estranged husband “Eddie” and that he has left several messages threatening suicide, saying that he is going to “slit his wrists”. Kneeland goes on to say that that Furlong told her it was her fault and that he had “already started” and was going to “finish the job”.
The 911 call dispatcher keeps Kneeland on the phone while he attempts to contact Furlong but there is no answer from the actor.
Kneeland applied for a temporary restraining order against the Terminator actor back in September claiming that he had turned violent and beaten her with chains and bats during an argument, and also accusing him of taking cocaine. The TRO was granted and Furlong was ordered to stay 100 yards away from Kneeland.
