A new book has come forward with claims that Frank Sinatra firmly believed that Marilyn Monroe's death was not accidental but a murder.
Monroe, a renowned actress, was found dead in August 1962 from an accidental overdose.
However, Sinatra, a close friend and confidant, allegedly held the belief that her demise was connected to her high-profile relationships with John F. Kennedy and his brother, Robert.
In the memoir titled “Sinatra and Me: In The Wee Small Hours,” written by Tony Oppedisano, Sinatra's former manager, it is stated that “Frank believed she was murdered, and he never got over it.”
Oppedisano reveals that Monroe often confided in Sinatra, who had a close bond with her.
According to the book, after Monroe's relationships with the Kennedy brothers ended, and they distanced themselves from her, she expressed her confusion to Sinatra, questioning why they completely shut her out once she stopped being involved with them romantically.
Shortly before her death, Monroe was staying at the Cal Neva Lodge near Lake Tahoe, which Sinatra partly owned.
The book claims that during this time, she was actually accompanied by her ex-husband, Joe DiMaggio, a baseball star.
A press conference was scheduled to take place, where Monroe was expected to make an appearance.
It is suggested in the book that she planned to announce her reunion with DiMaggio.
However, suspicions arose that Monroe might reveal secrets about her affairs with the Kennedys.
The book alleges that Sinatra believed she was silenced because of this assumption.
Oppedisano writes, “Frank believed if the press conference hadn't been announced, she would have lived a lot longer.”
Furthermore, it is claimed in the book that Sinatra was convinced Monroe would never disclose any details about their affairs as she still had lingering feelings for John Kennedy.
According to several sources mentioned in the book, Sinatra was informed that Monroe had been murdered using a Nembutal suppository, and there were suspicions of involvement from Robert Kennedy or the mob.
