One mystery that will never be truly solved is the death of one of the world’s most influential stars. Marilyn Monroe. On August the 5th 1962, at the tender age of 36 the Hollywood actress was found dead in her Los Angeles home. The scene seemed to be one of a suicide; however evidence suggests that she was confronted with a far more sinister end. Many believe that Marilyn in fact did end her own life but others including myself believe that her death was due to the hand of President Kennedy. I believe that homicide is what occurred on the evening of her death.

The President of the United States fell under this category perfectly. It became apparent that a transitory relationship between Marilyn and JFK occurred during the months prior to her death. I surmise that the fleeting affair was the cause of her hasty exit from the world. In the final years of her life Marilyn had become mentally unstable. Alchol and drugs became necessary props in the screenplay she concidered to be her life. Drowning in depression, she became reliant on prescription drugs and alchol to function somewhat normally. This issue became a detriment to both Marilyn’s personal life and her career. 20th Century Fox agreed to dismiss her from further projects. In desperation, she turned to the president for support. Marilyn asked Kennedy for a more committed relationship. Yet this was unrealistic as Kennedy had a family. Rejection was a familiar feeling to Monroe. Yet the denial of her request somewhat shocked her; as a result she threatened to go public with the affair. Marilyn Monroe once said ‘Dogs never bite me. Just humans.’ I believe that this quote in particular describes the end of her relationship with Kennedy perfectly. She was once again let down by someone she
The assassination of John F. Kennedy is one of the most controversial and debated topics in American History. JFK was one of the most beloved presidents of our time. One article of his death wrote, "The day the country cried". Unlike previous presidential assassinations, the JFK assassination is one that is filled the conspiracy theories. Such theories include a Government cover-up, Mafia influence and Cuban President Fidel Castro. The idea of a lone mind, Lee Harvey Oswald, plotting to kill President Kennedy is too simple. In the eyes of scholars there is simply no way that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. Even with the growing number of bogus theories, there are a number of logical theories that do hold water. In this paper I will discuss
Basic Plot Summary: when faced with the possibility of being fired, Ann Mitchell, a young newspaper reporter fabricates a fraudulent story about an unnamed victim who threatens to commit suicide in protest against the current political and social injustices in America. When the story goes to the public domain, it causes great sensation amongst the people and newspaper sales soar.
Is it possible for a woman who is in the public eye to murder her husband, the father of their one year old daughter? Kurt Cobain and his wife Courtney Love had a difficult relationship that resulted in a lot of rumors. Some people may wonder who is Kurt Cobain, he is a musician with conspiracy theory about how he died, although the police say he committed suicide some people think he was murdered, this paper talks about who he was, leading up to him being found, and how he was found.
The Cold Equations SP In the short story “The Cold Equations” by Tom Godwin a message is told: mistakes come with consequences and sometimes you must sacrifice something to fix them. The story takes place at a time far into the future (the late 2170’s) on an EDS (Emergency Dispatch ship) spaceship called the Stardust. It tells of an EDS pilot whose name is Barton, and Marilyn, a female stowaway who illegally made her way onto the ship in order to see her brother at the ship’s next delivery point. The EDS’s only have enough fuel to reach their destination with calculated amount of weight aboard.
On November 22, 1963, Sue recalls a terrible event had shaken the nation. President John F Kennedy had been assassinated. “A lot of people thought he [Lee Harvey Oswald] wasn’t the only shooter and the government was involved too. But Ruby shot Oswald, so we never found out.” She thinks the most probable cause of the shooting was the he wanted to end the Vietnam War, which was a big money-maker. Alas, Vice President Johnson took office, and the war continued.
Jackie Kennedy. The most far-fetched theory of all the JFK assassination theories is the one that states that John F. Kennedy’s own wife killed him herself. A few theorists claim or say that Mrs. Kennedy could have had a pistol in the car with she and her husband. They also say that after she shot him, she hid the pistol she used in a flowerpot nearby. But the fact that thousands of Texans were watching the Kennedys automatically throws this theory out of the window.
In a terrible turn of circumstances on the early morning of August 5, 1962, 36-year-old Marilyn died in her sleep at her Brentwood, California home with the phone attached to her hand. Rumors speculate of an overdose or intentionally killing herself. There was also speculation and gossip of having an affair with John F Kennedy and that she was about to go public with what she knew about JFK and Bobbi Kennedy. Also that she was murdered by 'government agents' to safeguard the president. Another conspiracy incident was that Marilyn was killed by the mafia as punishment to the Kennedy's for their attacks on them, and to expose Kennedy's many love affairs. Now with all the aspects of her death, Marilyn had plans to work on new movies and a possible
Lights flash and everyday, new stars come out in films and catch everyone’s eye. In the golden age of Hollywood, stars rose to fame and became idols for everyone. One of the biggest stars from the era was Marilyn Monroe. In the height of her fame she had some struggles with her personal life that lead to her demise on August 5, 1962 (Markel, Howard) Years after her death, controversy arose as to whether she really died of an overdose or was killed. Although her autopsy claims her death was due to an overdose, other sources contradict that.
Marilyn Monroe, whose real name is Norma Jeane Mortenson, was born on June 1, 1926 in Los Angeles, California. She was American actress, singer and model. She also was one of the most famous movie star, the sex symbols and pop icons of the 20th century. Despite her an unhappy, difficult childhood she got succeed during her short life period. She worked minor roles for years. Then, she showed her comedy ability, appearance on television and attraction with films. Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, How to Marry a Millionaire, Some Like It Hot and The Seven Year Itch are some examples of these films. Her success and these films provided her to be the most popular film actress in 1950s
Only 17 days after her famous “Happy Birthday” performance for John F. Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe was found dead at her home from an overdose of sleeping pills. She was only 36 years old. There is a lot of speculation surrounding the events of her death. Some people think it was a suicide, others prefer not to believe that. There were even conspiracy theories that were triggered by alleged affairs with both John F. Kennedy and Robert Kennedy.
Marilyn Monroe’s death, being only 36-years-old and murdered by an unknown victim, was very shocking to many Americans.
There is no actual confirmation besides untrustworthy gossip that Marilyn Monroe succeeded past those attempted phone calls. Her calls to Washington were never accepted, she was always sent to voicemail. Even if it were true; if she did manage to make contact and had an affair with either/both of the Kennedy’s, her autopsy report negates any sort of foul play. Expert medical examiner Dr. Judy Melinek confirms that Monroe’s autopsy aligns with the signs of self-induced overdosed. Any sort of needle or forced injection would have been spotted by the coroner immediately, “If drugs are injected by a needle you can typically see a needle puncture mark in the location of the injection, and this would be more likely to be visible if they were injected against the will of the person, as they would be fighting/resisting” (Melinek, 2018). Dr. Melinek also points out that it would be quite normal that no residue from the medication would have been found in Monroe’s stomach if enough time between her death and her arrival to the morgue had passed, “The absence of residue found in the stomach does not mean the drugs were not ingested. Drugs are designed to dissolve in the fluid and acidic stomach contents and no residue would be detected within several hours of ingestion” (Melinek, 2018). With this expert testimony confirming Marilyn Monroe’s autopsy reports as legitimate leaves the official cause of death by possible suicide by overdose as
A brief history of the investigations of the JFK murder is required to be able to understand the timeline of events. On November 22, 1963 John F Kennedy was assassinated. Seven days later, Lyndon B Johnson authorized the Warren Commission to perform an investigation of JFK’s murder. After about a year of investigation, the commission determined that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in killing the president; however, this lead to many conspiracy theories about JFK’s death. One popular theory, or the magic
She has one of the most recognized faces in the world. Over forty years after her death, Marilyn Monroe‘s life and death is still in question. Her trademark platinum hair and beauty mark, her famous skirt-blowing scene, which eventually she became ashamed of because no one could see the woman who was intellectual had feelings and worked hard behind the glitter, the gold and the smiles. Everyone knew this Marilyn Monroe, but did anybody know Norma Jeane Baker? Marilyn Monroe was a Hollywood icon, maybe even a legend, but who was this luminous woman, and was the happy woman that everyone knew capable of killing herself?
The year 1962 was known as the Year of the Tiger and better known as the last year of president Kennedy’s life. Though it was his last, it was also one of his busiest. Not only did he successfully keep the U.S. from being bombarded with missiles by the U.S.S.R. during the Cuban Missile Crisis, but also he delivered multiple speeches to excite Americans about our space expenditures and passed the Educational Television Facilities Act to provide federal funding for public broadcasting. One major event that he also accomplished in his last year was that he successfully had an affair with America’s sweetheart, Ms. Marilyn Monroe, without the media knowing. Because JFK was the president, the Secret Service had many precautions to follow to keep the affair out of the hands of the media. One
