Over the years, there have been numerous conspiracy theories surrounding the death of Marilyn Monroe on August 4, 1962. There was even an ultimately inconclusive reopened investigation into the matter by the District Attorney’s Office in 1982. Now, cold case expert Paul Holes is revisiting the case, and he believes there are still inconsistencies worth examining.
Holes has suggested that, for some reason, the LAPD did not follow “standard procedure” in Monroe’s case. According to Fox News, he believes authorities moved too quickly in classifying her death as a suicide. He said, “You always go to the conservative side and investigate it as a homicide until we prove it’s not a homicide. Today, that’s the way things should be done.”
