A dying CIA agent has admitted that he assassinated Marylyn Monroe after years of the public being led to believe that she died of a drugs overdose. Or this is what he states anyway. It may turn out that it is not true.

CIA agent admits he assassinated Marylyn Monroe

Normand Hodges said he carried out numerous assassinations during his time ion the CIA and that he remembers every detail of each one of them. He states that all of the assassinations were on US soil. He said Monroe was the only woman he had ever killed and that she had become a “threat to the security of the country.”

Marilyn Monroe's death conspiracy

“We had evidence that Marilyn Monroe had not only slept with Kennedy but also with Fidel Castro. My commanding officer, Jimmy Hayworth, told me that she had to die and that it had to look like a suicide or an overdose. I had never killed a woman before, but I obeyed orders … I did it for America! She could have transmitted strategic information to the communists, and we couldn’t allow that! She had to die! I just did what I had to do!” This information is from Your News Wire.

He claimed that he and a few other operatives went around the US assassinating targets that posed threats to national security. These were mainly political in nature, but sometimes were scientists or artistic people such as musicians.

The FBI are not dismissing his claims as the ramblings of an old man. He has been put under constant surveillance, and they have mounted an investigation into whether or not he could be telling the truth. If he is, it will create a huge distrust in the system, and little people would be able to put their faith in the CIA again.

So could this be true? Possibly, but more information is needed.

Your News Wire reported a comment made by Normand Hodges regarding Marilyn Monroe’s death.

“We had evidence that Marilyn Monroe had not only slept with Kennedy, but also with Fidel Castro. My commanding officer, Jimmy Hayworth, told me that she had to die, and that it had to look like a suicide or an overdose. I had never killed a woman before, but I obeyed orders … I did it for America! She could have transmitted strategic information to the communists, and we couldn’t allow that! She had to die! I just did what I had to do!”

Marilyn Monroe died at home

Marilyn Monroe died at home in her bedroom on August 5, 1962 between midnight and 1:00 AM. Hodges said that, while Marilyn was asleep, he snuck into her bedroom and injected the Hollywood actress with a huge dose of the barbiturate, Nembutal, combined with a powerful sedative known as chloral hydrate.

Was the CIA involved in Monroe's death?

Four of the CIA operatives that worked in conjunction with Hodges are now dead or missing. In 2011, Normand’s commanding officer, Major James Hayworth, died of a heart attack. Two other CIA assassins are also dead, and the last one, Captain Keith McInnis, is presumed dead after being reported missing in action in 1968.
