Book Description
In the summer of 1962 rumors of a Marilyn Monroe and Robert Kennedy affair where spreading through Hollywood. When Marilyn asked her friend and masseur if he had heard the rumors he replied "all Hollywood was talking about it." On the day before Monroe's death those rumors finally made their way into print in a Dorothy Kilgallen gossip column. In that column Kilgallen also mentioned a scandalous photo of Marilyn. The weekend before her death, Marilyn and her companion, Pat Kennedy Lawford were visiting Frank Sinatra's Cal-Neva lodge. According to photographer William Woodfield, a photo of Marilyn was taken that weekend that included Chicago mob boss Sam Giancana. FBI agent, Bill Roemer confirms Giancana was there. According to Shirley MacLaine, Hollywood was entertaining another MM/RFK rumor during that fateful summer. The basis of this one was that Robert Kennedy and the Justice Department were going after the powerful media conglomerate MCA on behalf of Monroe. At the end of 1961 a grand jury was convened in Los Angeles to determine if MCA was involved in a conspiracy to monopolize the entertainment industry. Civil and criminal charges were expected. This was precisely the same time period that Marilyn first met RFK and also when she fired MCA as the talent agency that represented her. In over 50 years and 100's of books about Marilyn Monroe's life and death, the connection between these interrelated circumstances are barely even mentioned. This book sets out to change that. In the weeks and days before her death, Monroe was reaching out and trying to contact Robert Kennedy. This book attempts to show that it had nothing to do with an actual affair between the two but it had everything to do with the mistaken gossip that there was an affair. Circumstances in the MCA case had deteriorated to a point where Marilyn had to feel she was going to be blamed for what was happening in Hollywood. In mid July 1962, the Justice Department announced it was going forward with it's case against MCA. MCA's talent agency represented between 60 and 70 percent of Hollywood's best talent. Just two weeks before Monroe's death the company was forced to dissolve their agency, leaving these actors without representation. Given the rumors that were circulating, I'm sure Marilyn wanted to set the record straight that she had nothing to do with this case. The men that ran MCA were powerful enough to make or break careers. It was also well known that both the president and chairman of the board of MCA were mob connected. The weekend of her death Monroe was trying to contact her old publicist Rupert Allan, and also George Barris, who was working on her biography. Isn't it likely she wanted to tell her side of the story about the Cal-Neva photo and the MCA case. After her death this was turned into a press conference where she was going to expose her affairs with the President and Attorney General. While that was complete nonsense it was built upon a kernel of truth. This book attempts for the first time to separate the kernels of truth from the countless lies, misrepresentations, misinterpretations and misinformation that has circulated for over a half a century. It does this by the construction of three new scenarios that incorporate new evidence and analysis into Monroe's death. A scenario is constructed for each possibility; suicide, accident and murder, allowing the reader to reach their own conclusions. Marilyn Monroe died from an oral ingestion of drugs, not from an injection, suppository or enema. If the drugs were dissolved in a liquid and given to Monroe by someone she trusted, it could still be murder. The final chapter of this book names a person who had the means, motive and opportunity to kill Marilyn Monroe. It's a name that's sure to surprise you. This person is still alive and it's high time she finally revealed what happened on August 4, 1962.
