Her housekeeper, Eunice Murray, woke around 3:30 a.m. and noticed a light still on beneath Monroe’s locked bedroom door. Monroe wasn’t answering. A psychiatrist was called and broke a window to enter.
Marilyn Monroe was found face down on her bed,
nude, clutching a telephone receiver.
The official cause of death was a probable overdose of barbiturates. Still, the details were unsettling.
Why was the door locked? Who was she trying to
call?
Years later, Murray said Robert Kennedy had
visited Monroe that night and argued with her. She hadn’t mentioned him in her
original statements or the police
reports.
No evidence ever confirmed the visit.
What remains are fragments: a locked room, a
telephone in her hand, and a lot of unanswered questions.
The death was ruled an overdose. The questions
never went away.
