Episode description as stored

On the morning of August 5, 1962, Marilyn Monroe was found dead in the bedroom of her Los Angeles home. She was 36 years old. The Los Angeles County Coroner ruled her death a probable suicide from an overdose of barbiturates, citing her long history of insomnia, depression, and substance use. But almost immediately, the official story began to fray. Inconsistencies in the timeline, conflicting accounts from the people closest to her, and Monroe's well-documented ties to some of the most powerful men in America turned a tragic death into one of the most enduring mysteries of the twentieth century. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson revisits the final hours of Marilyn Monroe's life, the doctors and confidants who were near her that night, and the theories that have refused to die in the six decades since.
