Marilyn Monroe Death: New Documentary Raises Questions about Suicide

On the 64th anniversary of the death of Hollywood legend Marilyn Monroe, American media TMZ released a documentary titled "Celebrity Crime Scene: Marilyn Monroe," which once again sparked discussions about her cause of death. The documentary suggests that the actress did not die by suicide, and the scene of her death was likely deliberately fabricated.

On August 5, 1962, Marilyn Monroe was found naked on the bed, with a telephone tightly gripped in her hand. The official cause of death at that time was determined to be an overdose of barbiturates.

In a documentary, Paul Holes said, “Nobody would go out of their way to make a suicide look more perfect by staging the scene.”

The documentary lists several inconsistencies at the crime scene, particularly the overly tidy beds. Moreover, Monroe’s medication bottles were neatly arranged with labels facing outwards, which clearly does not conform to the typical characteristics of a drug overdose scene.

The toxicological reports at that time indicated that Monroe's body contained high concentrations of sedatives at the time of her death, but no drinking cups were found near her.

The trailer for the documentary shows that the producers used artificial intelligence technology to recreate the virtual scene where Monroe committed suicide. Producer Harvey Levin stated that the cause of Monroe’s death “may be much more sinister.” The documentary also focuses heavily on the affair between Monroe and the Kennedy brothers, with one theory suggesting that her death was related to these two political figures.

According to reports, the documentary will be broadcast on Fox Television at 8 p.m. local time on Sunday, June 28th.
