What are some conspiracy theories regarding Marilyn Monroe's death?

Question

Can you please give me sources of your information, particularly any websites.

Answer 1

I've heard it suggested that it was CIA or FBI (probably CIA)...she was having affair with JFK & knew too much about what was going on in the White House & that the CIA wanted JFK out of the way (he'd threatened to "smash the CIA into a million pieces" cos they made him look stupid & nearly cause WW3 in the Bay of Pigs incident.

According to her phone records she knew someone was trying to kill her & phoned RFK at least 10 times that night.

There's also the unmistakeable fact that her drug overdose was administered anally so theres no way she could've killed herself.

Answer 2

some theories on her death

1. The mob did it because they were mad at the Kennedys:

The source for this theory is Chuck Giancana, younger brother of a mob boss, as put forth in the 1992 book "Double Cross." Giancana Sr. had expected JFK's allegiance because the mobster had once saved Joe Kennedy Sr. from a hit during Prohibition days. Instead, Robert Kennedy went gunning for organized crime. Giancana had Marilyn killed to embarrass RFK, but Bobby Kennedy foiled the plan by removing compromising evidence.

2. Robert Kennedy, aided by agents of the Secret Service and CIA :

This theory is put forth in Robert Slatzer, in his book, "The Marilyn Files." According to Slatzer, he didn't apply the final touch, the fatal dose of Nembutal. But, like a general, he gave the command.

3. The mob and a mystery guest:

The source of this theory is Milo Speriglio, as put forth in his book "Crypt 33." Speriglio, a private eye, investigated the death for 19 years. Speriglio states that Monroe was murdered by the Mafia. He also claims that there is a connection to the Kennedys, but that John and Robert weren't involved in the death.

4. The Communists:

This theory comes from Frank Capell in his book "The Strange Death of Marilyn Monroe" (1964). Capell, a fervid anti-Communist, believes that Communists killed Monroe, perhaps following orders issued by RFK.

5. Dr. Ralph Greenson, Monroe's shrink:

This theory is put forth in "Peter Lawford: The Man Who Kept the Secrets," written by James Hall, who claims to have been the ambulance driver called to the scene following the discovery of Monroe's body. As Hall puts it, "Just as Marilyn started coming around, the doctor arrived... I believe it was Dr. Greeson (Marilyn's shrink). He... pushed her breast to one side and gave her an injection."

6. The mob, on orders from the Kennedys.

The source of this theory is "The Murder of Marilyn Monroe" (1992). The four authors of this book are, oddly enough, psychics. The claim to have conducted seances in which they interviewed JFK, RFK, and Marilyn. Talk about a triple play!

Answer 3

Marilyn Monroe committed suicide. The Mafia murdered her for revenge on the Kennedys. It was the Communists; no, it was her shrink. For every theory there seems to be a theorist claiming to have solved the riddle of the actress's death.

7. Marilyn herself:
This theory was first put forth in the 1962 Los Angeles County Coroner's report, which listed her cause of death as a suicide.

Answer 4

Marilyn Monroe was the creation of Norma Jean Baker, as we all know. Did Norma Jean take her Marilyn as far as she could? Retiring quietly to live a peaceful life away from the public gaze?

Answer 5

Marylin Monroe did not have an affair with John Kennedy that is totally a myth

Answer 6

The usual ones about mob connections and the Kennedy's and their old bootlegging ties through pappa Joe and Marilyn being a drunk who was going to shoot off her mouth and stuff like that.

Answer 7

Kennedy

Answer 8

The one I know of was that she dated JFK and he talked to her about serious stuff regarding politics, business, and what not. Supposedly she kept a journal of everything they talked about and he found out, so some people think JFK might have put out a hit on her. I think. That's all I know.

Answer 9

It was rumored around the time she died that she was going to Mexico and talking to communist. Plus she knew too much involving the Kennedy's and when she was broken up with by both Bobby and John, and she was going to talk. So the Kennedy's had her killed.

Answer 10

I read one where she was supposedly injected in the anus with a non detectable lethal drug in order to stop her from blabbing about her affair with JFK. Just something I read. I wouldn't know. But that would be an undetectable injection.
