On August 4, 1962, 36-year-old Marilyn Monroe was found dead naked in bed with her phone in her hand and took over 50 pills. The officer Jack Clemmons didn’t think it was a suicide he thought the pills looked were staged. Some people think that Marilyn was killed by one of the Kennedy brothers. Clemmon also stated he thinks that John .F. Kennedy order someone to kill Monroe because she was sleeping with Robert his brother.
However, there is some evidence that it could have been staged. When officer Clemmons arrived he notices that her housekeeper, Eunice Murray, started cleaning her bed linens mysteriously the morning after her death. He also noticed that Marilyn had bruises on her body which didn’t make sense if it was a suicide. What didn’t make sense either is that there was no glass of water anywhere to be found because, she didn’t have running water at the time, so how could she have had an overdose. She also never slept nude it was against one of her nightly routines so they thought that was a little off.
I personally think it was a murder due to all the evidence that proves that it was murder she didn't have running water for one so she couldn't have taken over 50 pills without water. She also had her phone in her hand as if she was talking to someone. Also, her housekeeper cleaning her bed linens mysteriously. They also stated that she never slept nude and that she also had bruises on her body.
1.) Do you think it was a suicide or a murder?
2.) Do you think that she overdosed even though she didn't have running water at the time?

Great story choice(even though it is US History based) and well done overall Kiara! -20 late
I don't think that it is impossible that she swallowed the pills without water, because I often do, and I think the bruises and nakedness could be explained by a temporary high before the drugs killed her, but I think that it is also possible that she was killed, simply because she made a lot of enemies. Honestly though, there is so much evidence towards depression and suicidality in her life that it was probably suicide.
I don't think it possible to swallow that many pills there were over 50 pills but I'm not saying that it's not impossible I just think it would be fairly hard to swallow that many and maybe your right she could have got the bruises from the pills and her taking off her clothes due to the pills to
I've done a lot of research on her in the past, and although the story of murder is intriguing, it's very plausible she could've killed herself. She had a horrible life and expressed her hopelessness to many people in her life. She was constantly sexualized her whole life and then condemed for being "too sexual" despite the fact that it wasn't all in her control. She most definitely dealt with many mental health issues. I don't think it's out of bounds to say she might've killed herself.
it's definitely not out of bounds to say that she possibly killed herself because there is definitely a possibility of it and I do agree with the mental health issues but I did read somewhere that she wanted to change her life like make it better.
she could have been forced but I just don't see someone forcing her to take pills without water near her but at the same time it could because they wanted to kill her I do think it is a little suspicious the maid starting cleaning her bed right away after her death.
I think both the murder or the suicide ideas could be possible, but I believe that she was murdered more. I don't necessarily believe that many conspiracy theories easily, but there a ton of theories about this one that are pretty interesting to read about. No mater what happened, it's sad and unfortunate.
I do agree with you that there is a lot of theories on this story because she did make a lot of enemies so one of her so-called friends or flings could have stopped by the have a little chat and it could have ended badly and she could have been a murder or possibly that fight could have been so bad she just killed herself.
I think that she was murder and it was framed to look like a suicide. Theres no why that she coud have overdosed without water and if she didn't have running water and there was no glass of water to be found near her. Personally I think that she was murdered by the Kennedy's or that her maid had something to do with it.
I personally think that it could be ruled as both of them because back then they don't have as much advanced stuff that we have now but I'm leading more on the murder side because she did make a lot of enemies during her time of being alive.
