Kenneth Keith Kallenbach dies in local hospital, Stern show reports

Boothwyn's Kenneth Keith Kallenbach, an actor/musician, and perhaps most notably a member of Howard Stern's Wack Pack, has died, as was reported on Stern's Sirius Satellite Radio show this morning. Kallenbach was recently seen in commercials for Monday Night Football and Stride Gum and also appeared in "Jerry Maguire." According to Stern's show, which spoke with his mother, Kallenbach, who was 39, was serving time in a local jail where he fell ill and was taken to a Chester County hospital where he died from pneumonia. Kallenbach, was reportedly arrested recently for allegedly trying to lure an underage girl into his car. The most recent arrest we found in court records was in March 2007 for operating a car without an interlock breathalyzer device put on the car after a prior DUI conviction. We'll update this post as more information becomes available or check here.

UPDATE: Philadelphia magazine has dug up a 1994 story which details how Kallenbach got involved with Stern.

from phillymag posted by brian hanna The real story to the death was that he was denied his medication for cistic fibrosis when he was in jail that caused his pneumina. The first syptom of not taking medication for cistic fibrosis is fluid in the lungs. There are prisoners and guards that would testify to this. The allegations of child abduction were false and he would have been released. The girl who’s name I am not aloud to release recanted half her testimony in court he was being held in jail for probation violation until the court case was over. The girl was 17 and had been in and out of trouble with the law the last 4 years and was after sewing Ken civily after she found out who he was. I would like to get this information out so he can rest in peace and the proper people who caused his death get investigated. I have more info if you are willing to do this for me. I knew Ken for 25 years and I would like for this story to get out to the public.

I heard that Kenneth was "dying" to get back on Stern's radio show. Well, he did...

I guess he's not going to make it to Rick's Cabaret (strip club) as it grand-opens tonight with guests from Howard Stern's media universe.
