Synopsis

"Bobby called. He's coming to California. He wants to see me."

Drawing on secret police files, Marilyn Monroe's private diary, and never before published first-hand testimony, this book proves that Robert Kennedy was directly responsible for her death. It details the legendary star's tumultuous personal involvement with him and his brother, President John Kennedy, and how they sought to silence her.

The new evidence and testimony is provided by Mike Rothmiller who, as a detective of the Organized Crime Intelligence Division (OCID) of the LAPD, had direct personal access to hundreds of secret LAPD files on exactly what happened at Marilyn Monroe's Californian home on August 5, 1962.

Rothmiller used that secret information to get to the heart of the matter, to the people who were there the night Marilyn died—two of whom played major roles in the cover-up—and the wider conspiracy to protect the Kennedys at all costs.

There will be those with doubts, but to them, the lawman—who directed international intelligence operations targeting organized crime—says the printed, forensic and oral evidence are totally convincing.

This is an awesome new book on Marilyn Monroe’s death. I’ve read several other books about her and of course I had to add this to my knowledge base on her. It’s written by a man who was part of LA’s OCID, and had access to their secret files. He found the file on Marilyn and it included a copy of he......more

Goodreads review by Gary on July 25, 2021

Like many other people I have this fascination for Marilyn Monroe who died tragically before I even knew she existed. There has always been this mystery surrounding her death with lots of speculation and conspiracy theories. Well this book claims to have the truth surrounding the final days of Maril......more

Goodreads review by Michael on December 29, 2024

Lots of wild information here about Marilyn, the Kennedys, the LAPD, FBI, Secret Service, CIA, OCID, Hollywood and on and on. If its all true it is a Bombshell of information. Of course, a whole lot of this book could also be rubbish. How could that much even happen and nothing ever be done about it......more

Goodreads review by J Earl on August 18, 2021

Bombshell by Mike Rothmiller is both unconvincing as an argument and poorly written in general. And no, if he took this to any court he would not get a conviction, unless they chose to investigate all of his crooked dealings as a cop and prosecute him instead. Tell me if you've heard this before: A c......more
