Death Of An Icon: Marilyn Monroe (2022x13)

Air date: Jul 28, 2022

In August 1962, actress Marilyn Monroe died under mysterious circumstances. Official cause of death: 'probable suicide'. But many things point to murder: a too beautifully draped corpse, capped investigations, missing clues. In addition, Marilyn's affairs with the then President John F. Kennedy and his brother Bobby. The film star also threatened to divulge intimate and political details. Did this spell her doom? New evidence may be contained in the ominous Box 39 in the UCLA archives.
