For four decades there have been rumours that Marilyn Monroe's death was not a simple suicide. Now a Los Angeles-based Australian writer and director, Philippe Mora, has uncovered an FBI document that throws up a chilling new scenario.
BOBBY KENNEDY'S affair with the screen idol Marilyn Monroe has been documented, but a secret FBI file suggests the late US attorney-general was aware of - and perhaps even a participant in - a plan "to induce" her suicide.
The detailed three-page report implicates the Hollywood actor Peter Lawford, Monroe's psychiatrist, staff and her publicist in the plot.
The allegations suggest the 36-year-old actress, who had a history of staging attention-seeking suicide attempts, was deliberately given the means to fake another suicide on August 4, 1962. But this time, it is suggested, she was allowed to die as she sought help.
The document, hidden among thousands of pages released under freedom-of-information laws last October, was received by the FBI on October 19, 1964 - two years after her death - and titled simply "ROBERT F KENNEDY".
It was compiled by an unnamed former special agent working for the then Democrat governor of California, Pat Brown, and forwarded to Washington by Curtis Lynum, then head of the San Francisco FBI. Despite a disclaimer that it could not be sourced or authenticated, it was considered important enough to immediately circulate to the FBI's five most senior officers, including director J. Edgar Hoover's right-hand man, Clyde Tolson.
The report was in effect buried for decades as a classified document, and even the released version contains censored sections. Never before mentioned despite thousands of articles, books and documentaries about her death, it details aspects of Kennedy's on-and-off affair with the movie star, including sex parties and a lesbian dalliance. . .

Didn't Khalid Sheikh Mohammad confess to killing Kennedy along with all of his other confessions?
If he did, Rosie didn't mention it. Odd.
Probably had a 'Mexican Stand-off' with RFK holding evidence of Hoover's homosexuality and Hoover having the dope on MM's death.
Ol' Bobby really had the cajones (and stamina) -- Keeping wifey constantly pregnant and doing Marilyn Monroe on the side --on opposite coasts, no less! Whatta guy! (sarc)
Unless this guy's evidence is VERY good, this is a totally classless thing to do, spreading rumors about the dead and all.
"a chilling new scenario"
Not so new
Should we now also suspect that Howard K Stern is RFK or Lawfords spawn with some woman other than Marilyn?
The BBC did a documentry on this topic and it came up with the same information as well as she actually went to the hosp twice that night in an ambulance.
Why go to all that trouble? All Bobby had to do was set her up with a date with brother Ted.
RFK was a faggot.
WOW!
The Kennedy family needs to make freinds with Sandy Berger.
WOW What a revelation, next we'll find out that Ted really knew how to swim!
I've never thought that RFK had the affair with her. It was JFK. And I don't believe that either one of them would have been involved with murder. They had plenty of faults, but I don't think this would have been one of them.
And Kurt Cobain, too, I'm told.
