Marilyn Monroe: The Case For Her Innocence: Read The Liner Notes:

Marilyn Monroe. Los Angeles. 1962. A vibrant life pulse...

Marilyn Monroe did not commit Suicide! Here is how the night of August 4th, 1962 really transpired:

Marilyn Monroe did not yet have running water in the bathroom adjoining her bedroom, in her Brentwood home.

Marilyn told her housekeeper Eunice Murray: "If you ever see me take my sleeping pill, and then see me start to take it again by mistake, make sure and bring it to my attention!"

Marilyn kept prescription and vitamin bottles both by a water source, and where Ms. Murray could witness Marilyn taking her pills: The kitchen. Marilyn kept her bottles in the cupboard, unless they were getting low. Bottles needing refill were kept on the window sill, above the sink.

Marilyn took 1 Nembutal pill nightly to treat insomnia. The dose per pill? 2 mg, very high.

5:00pm Aug. 4: Marilyn returns from shopping and from the Vicente Pharmacy, where she'd picked up her Nembutal refill. She sits on her bed, removing the bottle from her purse, placing it on the night stand temporarily, until she can take it to the kitchen. After putting her purchases away, Marilyn goes to the kitchen, forgetting the bottle.

Marilyn had been prescribed a new drug by her physician Dr. Hyman Engelberg: Chloral hydrate, a sedative considered safe for day use, at that time. Engelberg failed to inform her psychiatrist Dr. Greenson of this. One possible side effect, is the slowing of the respiratory system.

Marilyn was also taking cold medicine. Her autopsy proved her claims of illness to be true, as she had an acute lung infection.

7:30pm: Marilyn takes one Nembutal pill so she'll be tired by 9pm, as it's her plan to turn in early. The open bottle in the kitchen still had a few pills left.

7:45pm: Marilyn turns down a dinner invitation from Peter Lawford, and sounds a bit slurred on the phone. Mr. Lawford placed the call to her main phone line.

8:00pm: Marilyn makes plans for the following day over the phone, and is semi-revived by the excitement.

9:00pm: Marilyn, forgetting that she'd taken a dose earlier, takes a second Nembutal pill, and says "Good night" to Eunice Murray.

4.5 mg of Nembutol was found in Marilyn's Autopsy. .5 mg was more than likely still in her blood stream from the preceding nights' dose.

9:30pm: Marilyn is undressing for bed and faints, landing on her back, on the bed, unconscious.

11:30pm: Marilyn is discovered as non-responsive by Eunice Murray. Marilyn's door, as usual, is locked. The light is still on in her room.

11:45pm: Dr. Ralph Greenson arrives at Marilyn's house and breaks into her bedroom through the window. He waits more than 4 hours to call the police, and does not call an ambulance. He is not qualified to pronounce death, but does pronounce Marilyn dead.

Time of death was estimated around 12:30am, thus, Marilyn was still alive when Greenson arrived, and needed an ambulance immediately.

4:25am August 5: Sergeant Jack Clemmons of the LAPD responds to a call from Greenson regarding Marilyn's death.

Officer Clemmons suspects murder due to the fact that the collection of empty pill bottles by her bed appears to be a prop, and to a lack of water glass. Waiting over 4 hours to report the body, was also very suspicious. He also noted that her body made no attempt to regurgitate any pills; A natural, involuntary response to ingesting poison.

The autopsy report found no traces of capsules, dyes, or undigested pills, in all of Marilyn's digestive tract. This is because her body was still alive until 12:30am, and had completely digested and absorbed the 2 pills she'd taken, by then.

Dr. Ralph Greenson, a once prominent, well respected psychiatrist, recognizes his error in prescribing a dangerous dose, and decides to plant bottles on Marilyn's night stand, to make it look like a suicide. Greenson would have been charged with Involuntary Manslaughter. Eunice Murray, an old friend of his, covered for him. Their mistake was placing the wrong telephone in Marilyn's room as a prop. Phone records indicate that her outgoing calls were made on her other line.

Dr. Greenson used pharmacy receipts from Swab's Pharmacy in Beverly Hills to verify the dosage he'd prescribed to Marilyn Monroe of Nembutal. A Physician went on record stating that 4 pills at that dose could be potentially fatal, during the investigation of her death. But upon moving into her new Brentwood home, Marilyn Monroe switched pharmacies to Vicente Pharmacy. Dr. Ralph Greenson doubled Marilyn's dose shortly after. The Vicente Pharmacy receipts prove that Greenson lied to the police and at this new, dangerously high dose, 2 pills could be potentially fatal.

26 years after Greenson's death, in 2005, Los Angeles County District Attorney John Miner, who was present at Marilyn's autopsy, testified that Marilyn was not suicidal, offering as proof his notes on audio tapes she'd recorded during her psychiatry sessions with Greenson.

so basically what that whole info is saying is that she died from taking two sleeping pills rather than one. wtf? like i dont know what happened or anything and im not saying your wrong, but would a doctor really prescribe such a powerful drug that if you take two it will kill you :s ?

[StarQualityWins]

@LeePritch5 Yes, Dr. Greenson made this mistake. It's happened hundreds of other times, not always fatal, with other doctors as well.

[StarQualityWins]

Marilyn Monroe was Wonder Woman. It's too bad for you if you don't think so.

[EdwardPack1988]

Her death is very Similar to Michael Jackson death who pretty much died to a drug to combat insomnia and how the doctor gave them to much and waited to long to call the police. Man there has to be a third party behind all this stuff
