'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 plotted to
silence her. The new evidence and revelatory statements are
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 restricted LAPD files on exactly what
happened at Marilyn Monroe's Californian home on August 5, 1962.
With his training and investigator's knowledge, Rothmiller used
that confidential 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 whatever the collateral damage. 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. He insists: 'If I presented my evidence in any court of
law, I'd get a conviction.'
It was said of the young Frank Sinatra that he came across as 'St
Francis of Assisi with a shoulder holster'. In Frank Sinatra and
the Mafia Murders Mike Rothmiller and Douglas Thompson draw on
previously secret Los Angeles Police intelligence files, a cache of
FBI documents released to the authors in 2021 and extensive
interviews with prime sources, including many who worked with Frank
Sinatra and many more who tracked his long and fatal association
with the American Mafia, notably his ongoing connection, after his
original godfather was assassinated: Sam 'Momo' Giancana, who
shared a lover with President John F. Kennedy. Sixteen days after
the assassination of John F. Kennedy on 30 November 1963,
nineteen-year-old Frank Sinatra Jr. was kidnapped at gunpoint from
his hotel room in Lake Tahoe, Nevada. A $240,000 ransom was
demanded from his father. While the FBI and Nevada and California
law-enforcement agencies sprang into action, Frank secretly
contacted his Mafia friends for help. The Mafia believed they could
free young Frank much more quickly through their underworld
connections. Some of those they questioned died. Revealed here as
never before is the extent to which Sinatra was adopted by the
Mafia. They promoted his career and 'watched his back' and, in
return, Sinatra danced to their tune. New information disclosed
here shows that Sinatra also offered to spy for the CIA. Inside
sources say Sinatra wanted the CIA to intercede to stop an
investigation into his gaming licence in Las Vegas. But the CIA
declined because they were already working with the Mob and were
concerned Sinatra would learn of the Mafia's connection to the CIA
and leak it.
