Monroe bought 796 pills over 57 days

Sgt. Jack Clemmons was the first police officer to arrive at the scene

Eunice Murray, Monroe's housekeeper

Clemmons said that there wasn't a drinking glass but there was

Clemmons also testified in the 80s that he saw Eunice Murray washing Marilyn's sheets

Marilyn didn't own a washing machine or a dryer

J. Edgar Hoover’s pal, columnist Walter Winchell

Maurice Reis, Frank Capell and Jack Clemmons propagated the RFK-Monroe affair hoax

There were around 25 other entertainers performing for John Kennedy

But it's always presented as if Marilyn Monroe was the only celebrity there

Monroe didn't spend the night with the Kennedys

Monroe last visited Washington DC in 1956

George Smathers, an unreliable witness in this case

Monroe killed herself

She swallowed the pills that killed her

She had 3 times the amount of barbituates in her liver than in her blood

That is consistent with an oral ingestion of pills

Taking Nembutal with Chloral Hydrate precipitated her death

Thomas Noguchi performed the autopsy on Monroe

Eunice Murray was Dr. Ralph Greenson's spy

Greenson was Marilyn's psychiatrist

No needle marks were found anywhere on Marilyn's body
