Yes, the county coroner listed the cause of death as "acute barbiturate poisoning" resulting from a "probable suicide."

There's a good recent tv documentary on this subject if you Google 'Marilyn Monroe death documentary' it'll probably come up, or you can search the 'imdb' (internet movie data base) at www.imbd.com to find how you can view it.

From that documentary....Marilyn like many Hollywood celebrities had been suicidal for some time. She was under a psychiatrists care and on psychotropic medication and sleeping pills. She was living in a rented regular 3 bedroom ranch house as she had previously blown all her money on addictions and extravagance. There was a full time nurse/ house keeper there to keep watch on her so she didn't try and kill herself again or get into any more trouble.

On the night in question she called celebrity Peter Lawford to ask if he wanted to go to dinner or come over and sounded desperate, but he didn't. She then locked herself in the bedroom for bed but had gotten hold of a full bottle of sleeping pills, she then took the whole bottle while laying in bed and calling people she knew. When the nurse/ housekeeper came to check on her, she couldn't get past the locked door, she called the psychiatrist on call, they broke in through a window and found she had fallen asleep and died in her sleep. She was used to taking a large amount of pills to sleep (sort of like Michael Jackson) but the fact that she took the whole bottle, had tried suicide before, was on suicide watch, and had locked the door convinced officials it was a 'likely' suicide by overdose.

It was technically officially ruled as a suicide, but the simple facts of the case show that it was absolutely impossible for it to be suicide. As far as Marilyn's death, it is impossible for her to have committed suicide based on the autopsy and toxicology results. I also have other proof, in the form of photographs released by the LAPD Homicide Department, that prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that she was murdered.

Also, this is an article I wrote debunking many of the myths and lies about the night she died:

http://www.immortalmarilyn.com/TwilightTheMythsOfAugustFifth.html







There are photos in existence, that I have, that prove she was murdered.



The conspiracies stem from the fact that the people who found her body changed their stories several times, said thing that could not possibly be true such as:

1. That her bedroom door was locked. Marilyn hated locked doors.

2. That she was found facedown with the phone in her hand. She died on her back (photos prove this) and the phone was nowhere near her. Also, the body had been moved.

3. The person who found her body waited nearly 4 hours to call the police.

4. The undertaker on scene estimated the time of death from the condition of the body and was told to change it to match the 'eyewitness' accounts.

5. The 'eyewitnesses'- her housekeeper and the psychiatrist who was obsessed with her and planted the housekeeper in the home to report back to him on everything Marilyn did- said that they had looked through her window and seen her lying on the bed. Except Marilyn suffered from insomnia and kept blackout curtains tacked to the wall.

6. The police report and coroner's report both list the time of death as being only 20 minutes before police arrived- even though her doctor pronounced her dead over an hour earlier and the condition of her body proved she had been dead for more than 8 hours by the time police arrived.

7. At her autopsy vital tissue samples just disappeared. The police investigative reports went missing. And to this day you can not obtain her phone records, her school records, or medical records.





The conspiracies are as follows:

1. She was murdered by the Kennedys (totally untrue with zero proof to back it up)

2. She accidentally overdosed (could not have happened based on the amount of drugs in her system)

3. She intentionally killed herself -again, untrue based on the amount of drugs. She also was not depressed...she had just signed a million dollar contract days before her death, giving her more money, respect and power. She was elated by it, as her close friends say. She had an appointment the day after she died to change her will.

4. Here's the more bizarre rumors: That the Mafia did it (also completely untrue), that she was killed because she knew too much about UFOs at Roswell (I wish I was kidding about this one)

5. Look into her psychiatrist, Dr. Ralph Greenson. THe more you find out about him, the closer you'll be to her killer.









Many, many people lie about Marilyn to get 15 minutes of fame for themselves, and unfortunately their garbage gets repeated so much that people believe it's true. Be VERY careful what you believe and look into who it's coming from.

Suicide... I do have self assurance Norma Jean became into having as affair with the two Kennedy's. That became into the only politics she became right into a ingredient of. returned in her days the FBI observed anybody as a countrywide protection possibility. We have been contained in the chilly war with Russia.

The official story was accidental drug overdose. She was at home when it happened. But there were rumours of both suicide and murder, because of the people she hung out with.

They say it was a drug overdose, but i personally think it was the Kennedy family that helped in the death of her.

No, it was considered an accidental death due to drug overdose.

i heard from my history teacher that she died alone naked in bed in a hotel room or something.

could of been suicide or drug over dose but they say that if it was a murder case, two brothers of John F Kennedy was suspects.
