Bobby Kennedy Murdered Marilyn Monroe?

There was quite a flurry of overseas press coverage of this little tidbit over the weekend: Marilyn Monroe allegedly murdered by Bobby Kennedy. Here's the gist:

"Marilyn Monroe may have been tricked into killing herself as part of a plot hatched with the knowledge of the former US attorney general, Robert Kennedy, according to a secret FBI file.

The document, uncovered by an Australian film director, Philippe Mora, suggests Monroe was "induced" to make a suicide attempt, in the belief she would be found in time, and her stomach pumped. Instead, it suggests, she was left to die by staff and friends, including the actor Peter Lawford, who was married to Kennedy's sister, Patricia."

I have no idea what credence to attach to this, but it has been picked up by some reputable news agencies. What's interesting is that, as of last night, it had been picked up by no one in the mainstream media in this country aside from a TV station in North Dakota. That's odd.
