Marilyn Monroe committed suicide at 36 years old by overdosing on sleeping pills, according to the official autopsy — but an eyewitness says that was all a cover-up! Former L.A. deputy coroner Lionel Grandison finally spoke out decades after signing the legendary screen queen’s death certificate after Marilyn’s suspicious and tragic death on Aug. 5, 1962. Grandison backed up claims made by Marilyn’s close pal Debbie Reynolds, with the doctor declaring that Marilyn Monroe “did not commit suicide – she was murdered!” And in a shocking National ENQUIRER interview, Grandison added Marilyn’s tragic fate was tied to her explosive diary that contained bombshell secrets about the FBI, organized crime, and her time with secret lovers John F. Kennedy and his U.S. Attorney General brother Robert!

"Marilyn knew too much," Grandison said, "and
someone — the FBI, the CIA
or the Mafia — killed her to shut her up." Grandison, co-author of the book "Memoirs of a Deputy Coroner: The Case of Marilyn Monroe," also accused L.A.'s Chief Medical Examiner, Dr. Theodore Curphey, of ordering him to take part in the cover-up.

"I objected when [Curphey] told me to sign the death certificate," Grandison continued. "I asked,'Where's the paperwork?' He said,'We won't need it right now. Just sign this and get the case closed.' He left no doubt that if I refused to sign, I would be fired."

A commission was supposed to investigate
Marilyn Monroe's sudden death, but Grandison said that there was never an official probe into Marilyn's mysterious death. "I was chief investigator for the coroner's office," he says. "I was assigned to gather all the information and evidence, and present it for the investigation. However, there was no official inquiry."
