I read somewhere that everyone who believes that Marilyn Monroe was assassinated agrees on the following details:
* she was held down with a pillow over her face
* she was injected with some kind of poison in her foot
I just wondered if there was anyone here who thinks she was assassinated, who could tell me if they do agree with those details. If anyone does, maybe they could tell me how they think this version got decided upon when most conspiracy theories are a bit more vague?
thanks
The facts are what they are: Elvis died from an overdose. Marilyn died from an overdose.
That being said: A friend of mine has an authentic picture of Elvis kissing Marilyn. All experts say that it never happened, yet the picture is obviously real. What say you to that?

I once read that Marylin Monroe's death wasn't suicide but possibly murder. There's the strange case of the reporting of her death, that the last person who saw her was the housemaid. She phoned Marilyn's psychologist who appeared, (there were witnesses, such as the neighbours who saw him arrive) and they remained at the house for a long time before the police was called. Also, there were a couple of men who were seen by the house earlier. The forensic showed that Marilyn had been dead during the time the psychologist spent all those hours there. Questions have arisen before, why did the housemaid phone the psychologist and not the ambulance or police? and what were they doing before the police turned up? who were those men? ect...No one knows what was going on. I will try and locate the details.

Since Marilyn had slept with both Bobby and Jack its quite likely she had threatened to blow the whistle.

Yeah, I did hear something about some MiB style guys that were seen going in (black suits and ties, briefcase etc). Interesting.
Personally, I think she was killed because JFK told her something he shouldnt have during the course of their relationship, although some people suggest that it was because he promised her something (eg money) that other people werent happy about...such as the rest of the family.
I do always wonder, though, in cases like this, why there are so many clues, and so many post-mortem inconsistencies. Surely the FBI is too skillfull to leave a trail like that?

Peter Lawford was at scene long before Police were called and he was a long time friend of JFK. Its possible he knew what really happened. My best guess is JFK had something to do with it.

The discoloration in her face was caused by post mortem lividity, I believe I have the spelling correct, that is the settling of the blood in the lower parts of the body after the heart has stopped beating and circulation has ceased. In her case she died lying on her stomach and face. Those being the lowest points on her body that is where the blood settled after death.
As to weather or not she was murdered, I don't think that there is any evidence that convinces me of a conspiracy or even that she was murdered. At this time I maintain she died of and accidental drug overdose.

I have seen the autopsy photos, post mortem lividity is a scientific fact not a theory. It manifests itself as dark discolorations similar in appearance to bruising. But is distinguishable from bruising after post mortem examination of the body and comparisons made between the markings and the position the body was in when death occurred.

Why can't it be that we had a disturbed woman who took either by accident or intentionally an overdose of drugs? Does it have to be some sort of conspiracy?

twpdyp, I understand that there is a possibility that Marilyn's death was suicide, in fact that is the most likely to be true, but there are alot of strange facts surrounding her death, such as the suited 'visitors' and the gap between her death and the time the police were called.
it is interesting that you call her 'disturbed' though. is there anyone here who knows the details of her mental state at the time?

Monroe knew that Bobby Kennedy was behind the assassination of MLK. She was deeply involved in the Mafia and had Bobby killed because she was also having a fling with MLK and hated Bobby for his murder. Knowing that she was now a target she went into hiding, until finally JFK's boys got to her and KILLED her. Once the Mafia bosses heard of her Murder, they killed JFK. It is so simple isn't it? Years later Elvis distraught by it all kills himself.

That was not bruising but blood under the skin that had no where to go once the heart stopped beating and because she was lying face down it all went congealed downwards. I cannot remeber the scientific term for this.
I think either an enema or an injection killed her, whether she did this to herself I don't know.

I understand that blood will always drain to the lowest part of the body in Post Mortem Lividity...But does this usually occur in the face in such a selective manner?
Blood under the skin is also indicative of bruising, and in the case of poor Norma...there is also visual indication of slight swelling...You know, like she had been slapped a few times.

I have not seen the rest of her autopsy photos, so I cannot say with certainty that her body was or was not in the same condition as her face. But if I recall correctly her head was found hanging kind of half off of the bed which if my memory is correct then that would make her face lower than the rest of her body, Correct.

The following was taken from a site that supports the "coverup" theory it also says that Monroe was NOT found with head hanging over bed.
QUOTE
THE DAY MARILYN DIED
On the morning of August 4, 1962 Monroe had been up for hours when her housekeeper, Eunice Murray and her personal publicist, Pat Newcomb, who had spent the night, stirred at 9 A.M. Leaning against the kitchen wall in a terry cloth robe, Monroe became cross with Newcomb. "I had been able to sleep and Marilyn hadn't," said Newcomb in an interview. "When I came out looking refreshed, it made her furious."
"Marilyn had calls that morning, and by the time I saw her she was in a rage," Newcomb said. Some believe the phone calls were from Peter Lawford and Bobby Kennedy, in that order. Several other disturbing calls had come intermittently during the night, in which a female voice screamed, "Leave Bobby alone!"
According to some speculators, Robert Kennedy arrived at Monroe's home the afternoon of the fourth. Hollywood detective Fred Otash claims that, "Marilyn and Bobby had a violent argument and she told him that she felt used and passed around. At the end of the argument Marilyn ordered Bobby out of her house.
After the visit Monroe was so distraught that she summoned her psychiatrist, Dr. Greenson, for a 90 minute session--which probably involved an injection of barbiturates similar to one given to her by her internist, Dr. Engleberg, the previous afternoon. By 5:30 P.M, her analyst had left Monroe. Afterward, she talked to her stepson, Joe DiMaggio Jr., and her friend Jeanne Carmen, among others---none of whom believed she was depressed or on drugs.
Informed sources believe Monroe died before midnight, August 4. Housekeeper Eunice Murray found the body and called Ralph Greeson. When publicist Arthur Jacobs, Pat Newcomb's boss, received word, around 10:30 P.M., he rushed to Monroe's house.
The first call from Monroe's house to the outside world came six hours after Arthur Jacobs had been notified. Police sergeant Jack Clemmons was on watch at the West L.A. substation, less than three miles from Monroe's home, when, at 4:25 A.M., the telephone rang. At first the caller, Dr. Ralph Greenson, was so agitated that Clemmons couldn't understand him. "Marilyn Monroe is dead," the psychiatrist said, "she just committed suicide."
When Clemmons arrived at the scene, Eunice Murray led him to the bedroom and gestured toward Monroe's bed. "Marilyn was lying face down in what I call the soldier's position," said Clemmons. "Her hands were by her side and her legs were stretched out perfectly straight. It was the most obviously staged death scene I have ever seen The pill bottles on her bedside table had been arranged in neat order and the body deliberately positioned, It all looked too tidy."

Ok...You don't actually say you read this anywhere...I just assumed (maybe wrongly) that you were not there at MM's autopsy or that you have a divine knowledge of the subject...and had read a report someplace....Phew, aren't you taking this personally. I don't think I implied (insinuated) anywhere that you are not keen to see murderers brought to justice.

There is no solid evidence to indicate that she was murdered.

Either way she was destined to die young. She tried suicide many times and was completely miserable inside. She lived through a whole bunch of crap when she was young and continued to live it as a star. I don't think anybody knew the real Norma Jean. Everybody knew the character Marilyn Monroe that took over her life. She probably just had all those love affairs to feel loved. I don't think anybody would want to live a life full of secrets like she did.
I think she died because she has an overdose of some kind of substance through her rectum. I don't think that she took a whole bunch of pills orally. The autopsy proves it is impossible because there wasn't that many pills in her stomach to kill her.

Here is my opinion on the subject.
She accedently overdossed with her sleeping pills, it happens, alot really. The bruses on her face were because she was lieing on her face and when some one dies blood rushes to the lowest part of hte body and then cloughts there.
There was no trace of pills or anything in her body found because they disapated before the autopsy, well even befor she died.

I think that there would have been some trace of her swallowing the pills if it did actually happen, not the actual pills, but something. And to overdose on the pills that she was taking would be quite hard with no water. I heard on a television speacial somewhere that her faucet was broken or turned off and couldn't get any water. And her anus did have some kind of purple fluid or something. Even though I heard the nurse was fired, I think she had something to do with it.

Although "no proof" exist of a murder I tend to wonder and the pills not showing in her system at autopsy still makes no sense they should have remained in her system for a while at least and with body not working (being dead) I fail to see how her body could have absorbed them. I see no hard evidence of a murder cover up but I also fail to see concrete evidence of "accidental" overdose as well
