"Dear Mr. President."


Robert Lindsey argues that none of the evidence in Marilyn Monroe’s case adds up. He claims that Sam Cordova asks for a new investigation and stated “two rulings of a suicide left unsolved questions.” Lindsey develops this claim by first examining all he evidence. Lindsey explores the Kennedy brother’s affairs with Monroe, stating Rob Kennedy was at Monroe’s house the day she died. He supported that claim with evidence that Mr. Kennedy was in Beverly Hills the night before Monroe died. He also accounts Peter Lawford destroyed a suicide note, which gave Mr. Kennedy enough time to escape Los Angeles. Lastly the author adds a letter was written to the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors explaining Monroe was taken to a hospital in Santa Monica, where she died in the waiting room. Then, they took her body home and contacted the police. Robert Lindsey’s purpose is to inform readers about how Monroe’s affairs with the Kennedys affected the case in order to influence your opinion on her death case. This work is significant because it makes you think. If Monroe killed herself, why would everyone want to go through all of the trouble of covering up the true story?
