  • Marilyn Monroe: Part Three - I sin, but I’m not the Devil
    Feb 15 2024

    In Part Three of our story, Marilyn Monroe: I Sin, but I’m not the Devil, we delve deep into the perplexing circumstances surrounding the Hollywood icon's untimely demise. As our story unfolds, conflicting accounts emerge, raising doubts about the official version of events. Was Marilyn's death truly a suicide, as initially claimed by her personal physician, or were there darker forces at play? Sergeant Jack Clemmons of the West Los Angeles Police Department received a chilling phone call from Dr. Hyman Engelberg in the early hours of August 5, 1962, informing him of Marilyn's tragic end. However, discrepancies in the testimonies of those present at the scene, including Marilyn's housekeeper Eunice Murray, and her physicians Dr. Ralph Greenson and Dr. Hyman Engelberg, cast doubt on the purported timeline of events.

    Amidst the confusion, theories abound, each painting a different picture of Marilyn's final moments. From speculations about accidental overdoses caused by miscommunications between her physicians to sinister plots orchestrated by the CIA, FBI, or even the mob, we explore this myriad of possibilities. Whether Marilyn fell victim to her own demons, became collateral damage in the political machinations of the Kennedy era, or was silenced by powerful underworld figures, one thing remains certain: her death continues to captivate and intrigue, shrouded in mystery and unanswered questions that defy resolution. Join us as we unravel the enigma of Marilyn Monroe's final hours and confront the elusive truth behind one of Hollywood's most enduring mysteries.
