Bobby and Marilyn II
ByA reader writes:
The Bobby Kennedy-Marilyn Monroe allegations have been bouncing around in the public prints for 30 years now and we are no closer today than we ever were to knowing whether there is any basis for them. It does not surprise me in the slightest to find that the story appears in RFK's FBI file. This is precisely the kind of unverified calumny that Hoover trafficked in. As for the "sheer detail" of the reports, that to me adds nothing to their credence.

I'm a researcher and doc filmmaker who has researched Ms. Monroe extensively since childhood and AP'd a PBS American Masters documentary on her last year - Marilyn Monroe: Still Life. The new FBI document is not new at all. I downloaded it years ago from the FBI's site. That particular document cannot be authenticated. If it were true, you can bet the FBI would not be publishing it.
But it was in the FBI files, right?
