MARILYN MONROE INVESTIGATOR PASSED AWAY

John Miner

John Miner was a former Los Angeles prosecutor who investigated Marilyn Monroe's death in 1962. He believed Marilyn was murdered and never gave up on this idea. He passed away on February 25, 2011 at the age of 92.

He was granted permission to listen to the tapes that Marilyn had made for her psychiatrist at the time, Dr. Ralph Greenson, for the 1962 investigation into Marilyn's death. However, he was only granted access if he promised to keep the content of the tapes a secret.

In 2005, Miner revealed what he had heard on the tapes, as he had taken extensive notes when he had first listened to them. He said that the tapes proved that Marilyn was not suicidal (her death was ruled a probable suicide) and that she had many projects in mind.

Miner was also involved in the investigations of the 1968 assassination of Robert F. Kennedy and the series of murders committed by the Charles Manson "Family."
