'I know a lot of dangerous secrets about the Kennedys. I will shock the world': Marilyn Monroe's ominous words before she was found naked and dead in bed... so was she murdered to silence her?

My god what a beautiful woman, thinks jazz singer and pianist Buddy Greco. He's sitting outside Frank Sinatra's bungalow in Lake Tahoe. It's Marilyn Monroe.

That night, after Greco walks off stage after performing The Lady Is A Tramp, his big 1960 hit, he spots an unsteady Marilyn standing in the doorway, clearly intoxicated, defiant and angry. The actions of others raise questions, such as Lawford’s quickly delivered instruction to investigator Fred Otash to ‘do anything to remove anything incriminating’ at Marilyn’s house that could connect her to Jack and Bobby Kennedy. John Miner, who heads the medical-legal section in the LA District Attorney’s Office, is convinced that someone administered an enema to Marilyn containing the lethal combination of Nembutal and the sedative chloral hydrate.
