"Overdose, suicide or murder? What really happened the night Marilyn died
In this exclusive extract from a new biography of the star, unpublished documents reveal the truth behind the Kennedy conspiracy theories
There have been other reports that suggest Marilyn died as early as 10.30pm on the Saturday night, and Dr Greenson did not report the death to the police until 4.25am on the Sunday morning.
Into the black hole of these few empty hours conspiracy theorists have injected a thousand wild conjectures. According to one of the most widely believed conspiracy theories, the delay in reporting the death would give Marilyn’s supposed murderers time to clear the house of any incriminating evidence. Central to the question of the alleged cover-up is Marilyn’s involvement with the Kennedy family.
Six weeks after Marilyn’s death, sergeant Jack Clemmons met with two men who – like him – had a vested interest in digging up dirt on the Kennedys. Clemmons was a director of the Right-wing Fire and Police Research Association of Los Angeles 'If you haven’t time to learn more about and to fight communism today,' runs the tagline for one of the organisation’s newsletters, 'you’d better start getting ready to learn how to live under it tomorrow!' Jim Dougherty, Marilyn’s first husband, was a colleague of Clemmons’s at the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), where Jack was known for his extreme Right-wing views. 'The old rascal, he hates the Kennedys,' said Dougherty. 'He’s so far Right, I can’t tell you, if he stuck out his head he’d hit himself in the right eye… He would paint the Kennedys as black any way he could.'
Clemmons’s co-conspirators in a battle to bring down the liberal Kennedy clan – whom they thought were too sympathetic to far-Left causes – were Maurice Ries, president of the anti-communist Motion Picture Alliance for the Preservation of American Ideals, and private detective turned Right-wing propagandist Frank Capell."
