The first wife of actor Robert Blake claims in a court deposition that the actor tried to have her killed after the couple separated.

Sondra Kerr Blake gave her deposition in May in a Los Angeles attorney's office as part of a wrongful-death lawsuit brought against the actor in the shooting death of his second wife.

He was acquitted in March of Bonnie Lee Bakley's slaying.

Details of the deposition were first reported Wednesday in the New York Daily News.

The woman, who was married to Blake more than 20 years, testified that several people told her in the mid-1970s the actor took out a "contract" to kill her and her boyfriend.

Blake planned to blame the killings on followers of mass murderer Charles Manson, his ex-wife testified.

"He had put a contract out on me and the other man that I was seeing at the time," the transcript of Kerr Blake's testimony quoted her as saying.
