No way was Bobby Kennedy, or any other "name" in the house that night. This type of hit occurs via murder for hire. Appearing personally would occur only if the murder was heat of the moment, which normally means a fight. No evidence that I am aware of. To clarify, I believe she was murdered, but the people behind it were not in the house that night, regardless of what Ms. DiMaggio stated.

The Kennedys were very close to the Mafia because of their father's old connections. Sam Giancana in particular, as I recall.

Sometimes when it has to be done right, you're forced to use family.

To paraphrase the game Clue:

Bobby Kennedy, in the bedroom, with a suppository of barbiturates.

And according to Bill Bonnano; Joe's "Italian friends," were on a grassy knoll in Dallas, on November 22, 1963 to even the score, because John failed to call off Bobby's "War on Organized Crime" as the AG.

John Roselli, who had been ordered to remove himself from Chicago to L.A. by Al Capone in 1925 following a federal narcotics arrest, was generally thought by most of the Chicago newspapermen with whom I worked, to have been in charge of the crew that visited Marilyn that evening. You'll get arguments, but the rationale seems to have been to have been to discredit Bobby Kennedy, Marilyn's phone having been wiretapped by Hollywood P.I. Fred Otash and her room having been bugged by Jimmy Hoffa's wireman, Bernie Spindel.
