Marilyn Monroe
A
beautiful young women who always had a smile on her face is found dead on
August 5th, 1962, face down and naked in her bedroom (Welkos 1). The ruling of
her death was a drug overdose. Which seems strange because why would someone
one who had an amazing life decide to end it all? There are many conspiracy
theories about Marilyn Monroe’s death: she committed suicide because she was
depressed, that the Kennedy’s paid the mafia to put a hit on her. And, the most
famous one id that the Kennedy family had her murder. But, the main one will
have you believing that she was killed. The most talked about conspiracy theory
about her death is that the Kennedy family had her killed. Now, let’s look at
these conspiracy theories
Marilyn Monroe was young and beautiful soul
that was taken too early. Marilyn had many internal conflicts. She had piercing
blue eyes and beautiful blonde hair. Marilyn was very conflicted side and had
many problems to deal with. She struggled with two major personalities
disorders. “Marilyn had both bipolar disorder (manic depressive) and borderline
personality disorder. It’s very hard to live one with one let alone with the 2
disorders.” (Chaen 2). She most likely felt like she was always walking on egg
shells in public trying to keep it together. She also struggled with a lot of
anxiety problems.
Marilyn Monroe was born as Norma Jeanne Mortenson. She had
many external conflicts. “Actress Marilyn Monroe overcame a difficult childhood
to become one of the world's biggest and most enduring sex symbols” (Marilyn
Monroe bio1). She was always in and out of foster homes. “At seven years olds,
Monroe returned to a life of forester homes, where she was on several occasions
sexually assaulted: she was later raped at elven years old.” (Bio 2). She
married her first husband at a very young age. “She wed her boyfriend Jimmy Dougherty
on June 19, 1942 at the age of sixteen.” (Marilyn Monroe Bio 2) Many people
judged her for being a sex symbol because in the fifties sex was talked about
but wasn’t openly expressed; women still dressed modest. Many women still
believed that the only person allowed to see your body was your husband. But,
Marilyn modeled in a very risky way for that time period. Now when we look at
her picture, we think there’s nothing wrong with them. She loved attention. She
didn’t just model she also acted and sang. She was known for having men in her
life; some being well known by the public.
There are many
conspiracies on how people believe Marilyn Monroe died. But there are three
that have enough evidence to make these three possible ways that she died.
These three are: that she may have actually committed suicide, that the mafia
received payment to put a hit on her. And that the Kennedy family had her
killed.
One of the conspiracy theories on the death of Marilyn
Monroe’s is that she may have really committed suicide. It was always said that
Marilyn suffered for bipolar disorder. “The coroner’s finding stated: Miss
Monroe has suffered from psychiatric disturbance for a long time. On more than
one occasion … when disappointed or depressed, she has made a suicide attempt.
On these occasions, she had been rescued.” (Vultaggio 1) For some reason even
with the evidence saying that she had tried to kill herself before by over dose
I just don’t believe that she committed suicide. She had a good life she was
modeling, acting and singing. I believe that she was someone dirty little
secret and they wanted to get rid of her before it got worse. But will never
know maybe she really did want to end it all. That’s why this is one of the top
conspiracy theories on her death.
The second conspiracy theory that were going to look in
to is that the mafia killed her. This one has a lot to do with the third
conspiracy theory will talk about. Many people believe that someone placed a
hit on Marilyn Monroe. “The killing is said to be masterminded by American
union leader Jimmy Hoffa and Chicago mafia boss Sam Giancana, who were being
investigated as a part of a crackdown on organized crime ordered by Kennedy.”
(why the mafia killed Marilyn Monroe 1). Many people believe that she was killed
by the mafia who had been paid by a member of the Kennedy family. It’s rumored
that John F. Kennedy was the one to pay the mafia to kill her. He wanted end
romantic relationship between Marilyn Monroe and his brother Robert F. Kennedy.
It’s said that the mafia came into her house late at night after she had just
had an argument with Robert. Many believe that he want or to stage a fight to
leave the door open for the mafia members to make their way in. when Monroe was
found next to her body was a bottle of pills with many of the pills missing
which made the police think she killed herself. “She left a bottle of chloral
hydrate with only ten of the fifty pills. The hypnotic drug was used the
previous years in a number of brutal underworld killings and was the mafia’s
pharmaceutical murder weapon of choice.” (Why the mafia killed Marilyn Monroe
2).The medical examiner found drugs in her system but no tablets from taking
the pills. It was found in her blood stream. “John miner, who was head of the
Los Angeles district attorney’s medical-legal section and attended Monroe’s
Autopsy, believes an enema is the most likely explanation.” (Why the mafia
killed Marilyn Monroe 1)
The third conspiracy theory is the big one the one most
people believe happened. I took a survey and asked twenty people “do you
believe that the Kennedy family killed Marilyn Monroe.” Out of the twenty
people I asked nineteen said yes! This is the one that I also believe in and
has the most believable. Marilyn Monroe was known for having relations with
both John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy. It’s said that Robert F. Kennedy
had the mafia kill her because he was running for president and wanted that
dirty little secret out of the way and to never make out to the public. When
JFK stared running for president him Brother RFK was having relations with
Monroe’s. To me all the information about the mafia being paid off by the
Kennedys adds up. He didn’t want to do it himself because he wanted to keep his
hands cleans and look like they had a picture perfect family while running for
president.
Will we ever really know how Marilyn Monroe died was its
suicide or was she killed? We’ll never know and you know why? If she was really
killed by the Kennedys it will never come out. The government protects their
own and they will always deny that the Kennedys had anything to do with it to
help him look better for running for president. But not many people believed
that she decided to end her life and there too much evidence to not believe she
was murder. On, August 5, 1962, the beautiful Marilyn Monroe was
found dead in her bed. The result of her dead led to many conspiracy theories.
But, these three have the most evidence:
1. That she may have really committed
suicide.
2. That a hit was placed on her so they
mafia killed her.
3. That Kennedy’s had her killed.
Even today, some fifty
years later we really don’t know if she killed herself or if yes was murdered.
We will probably never know if it’s been cover up for fifty years it will stay
this way. It really comes done to what conspiracy theory you believe the most.
