Marilyn Monroe, her death is a mystery (to me).

I don't think it was suicide. After reading 2 books by L.A.'s coroner, and learning about the Kennedys, I think Robert & John had something to do with it.
 
I waver back and forth on the cause of her death????

My lady friend went and visited her burial crypt this summer, and said there are lip prints all over it.
And, if I remember correctly, Hugh Hefner is next to her.
 
i've always felt she was smarter than people gave her credit for, and she had a compassionate heart. Certainly she had enough 'issues' for suicide (deliberate, or a miscalculation of self-medication) is a possibility. Some conspiracy-- maybe, but doubt it.
While media hyped a competition/feud between her and Elizabeth Taylor, i read something yesterday from an interview with Taylor while alive (which i can't find now, of course) in which she did a rational comparison of what made the differences between them and sounded sympathetic to MM. Specifically she talked about the differences in their entourages. Taylor's by the time she was an adult were of practical help (herding her kids) and emotionally supportive; Monroe's were 'handlers' who according to Taylor often undermined and berated Monroe, keeping her insecure, dependent. She ended by saying that if Monroe had had similar support to her own Marilyn might 'still be with us'.

While i have no trouble believing JFK may have had an affair with her, can't see RFK doing so OR agreeing to murdering her to keep her quiet. With her mental health issues it would have been much easier to discredit her. JFK was known to be a womanizer even at the time. (Suspect Jackie took European attitude--"just be discrete about it". Which might have been more motive for JFK to silence MM than what her going public would in itself do to his career.)

I can see RFK talking himself blue in the face trying to convince her to be quiet if she was hinting at going public, but murder? That i have a hard time with...even back then i had more respect for him than his brother.
 
While I don't think MM ever intended to grow old, I still think it was accidental. She was drinking and taking pills. Easy to miscalculate while inebriated.

I doubt either Kennedy had anything to do with it at all. JFK was trying to get her to leave him alone, which may have pushed her further into the boozing.
 
Have the results of the Coroner's report ever been made public? Was she bruised? Any semen?

I, personally feel that she may have been killed. I also believe she would have left a suicide note. Surely, she would have left one if what they say about her suicidal history is true.

Both John & Robert were........sharing her.
 
I am afraid I don't know much about her to believe or disbelieve the circumstances of her death.
You can't form an opinion with all the tall tales out there, I do know she was very scared of having children as her mother was in a mental institution and she didn't want to pass on mental issues.

She strikes me as a tortured soul, with very low self-esteem.
 
I don't know. She had connections to organized crime figures so anything is possible. Convince me it was murder. Authors who write books about a subject are trying to make money so that I would take with a grain of salt.
