Dr. Phil Intervention

I was approached by a friend who was also a private investigator who needed two investigators to place a 14-year-old female on surveillance from Friday night until Monday morning. This 14-year-old child was allegedly prostituting herself to the men in the apartment complex and using the money to buy drugs and electronic gadgets. My friend was hired by the staff with Dr. Phil and our job was to monitor the 14-year-old and make sure she didn’t leave before the Dr. Phil teen intervention team arrived.

It was very emotional for me to watch this young girl. I worked the night shifts and was just below her bedroom window, and watched her all weekend. I could hear and see her fighting with her mother and grandmother. She left her curtains open all of the time even when she changed her clothes.

There were several men standing in the area of her window and just watching her. It was very hard for me not to go off on these assholes. But, I was on a case and undercover so there was nothing I could do. The mother, grandmother, and teen left on the second night and I followed them to a restaurant and, I sat behind them. The mother and grandmother never spoke to the young girl and vice versa.

Dr. Phil's intervention team arrived at 6:00 am on Monday morning with a film crew. They interviewed the investigators including myself who were involved with the surveillance and then we went into the apartment and the film crew woke her up. The mother and grandmother already knew and approved the intervention so the only one surprised was the girl.

The young lady immediately knew it was the Dr. Phil show and begged everyone to leave. It broke my heart as I stood there listening to this young girl beg for everyone to leave as the intervention team went through her bedroom with a camera in her face. The young lady began to talk after an hour of fighting and screaming at everyone. She admitted to prostituting herself out to the men in the apartment and that she bought drugs, cell phones, and an iPod. She told us about the men she had sex with who lived in the apartments and even gave the apartment numbers.

The young lady said she was doing the same thing her mother did by bringing different men into the apartment all of the time to have sex and drink beer all night. The mother was standing next to me and she responded by saying, “I don’t drink beer, I drank wine and I’m an adult.” I just looked at her and told her that she was pathetic. The girl and the family went to Dr. Phil’s house but no one ever did anything about the pedophiles. 

So, I went to the authorities and provided them with the video that I had taken during the intervention and all the men was arrested. I  watched the show a few months later and saw that the family appeared to be getting help and doing well. They moved to another city and started a new life.

Los Angeles Police Department Covered Up Murder of Marilyn Monroe

August 5, 1962, it was around midnight near the intersection of Robertson and Olympic Blvd., when  Beverly Hills Detective Lynn Franklin pulls over an intoxicated Peter Lawford in his Lincoln Continental sedan with the headlights off going 70– 80 MPH with Dr. Ralph Greenson in the front seat and Bobby Kennedy in the backseat. Not eager to give Lawford a ticket with Bobby in the backseat, Detective Franklin gives them proper directions to go to the Beverly Hilton Hotel since Peter, drunk and hysterical, was driving in the opposite direction heading toward downtown Los Angeles. Franklin said he did not correlate Bobby Kennedy with Marilyn Monroe at the time of the stop as news of her death was still hours away.

The first LAPD officer to arrive, Sgt. Jack Clemmons strongly felt Marilyn was murdered and that the body was arranged and not in the position that you would expect a victim of poisoning to be. Of course, he was told to leave the scene by Sgt. Marvin Iannone.

I want to know how someone can hold onto a phone when your hand is hanging off of a bed when you die? That phone would fall out of your hand once you begin to die, yet Dr. Greenson claimed Marilyn still had the phone in her hand when she was found. This is very hard for me to believe.}

Peter Lawford and Sgt. Marvin Iannone enters the guest cottage. The five eyewitnesses to Marilyn Monroe’s murder by Ralph Greenson were Schaefer Ambulance attendant James Hall, Schaefer Ambulance driver Murray Liebowitz, Peter Lawford, Pat Newcomb, and Sgt. Marvin D. Iannone. Within minutes, Marilyn dies.

When Sgt. Clemmons continued to argue that Marilyn did not commit suicide; he was fired by Chief Parker for not remaining quiet and not agreeing with him that Marilyn committed suicide.

When Marilyn’s body was found, there was no glass of water in the room, meaning that she would not have had any liquid to swallow that many pills. Once someone pointed this out after the search was completed, a glass was found near the bed.

The pathologist, Dr. Thomas Noguchi, could find no trace of capsules, powder, or the typical discoloration caused by Nembutal in Monroe’s stomach or intestines.  For many years, conspiracy theorists seized this fact as vital evidence that the drugs that killed her had not been swallowed but injected.  There was a strange bruise on her left hip, a common location for an injection, or possibly a sign of a violent struggle.

Medical samples, photographs, slides of those organs examined, and the examination form showing bruises on the body all disappeared shortly after the autopsy, making it impossible to investigate the cause of death.

Not long before she died, a D.A.’s report shows, Monroe discussed suicide with an actress friend, Jeanne Carmen. Was she said if she ever were to kill herself, she “would dress in a white nightgown, take an overdose of pills and go to bed? The sheets and spread would be white, and she would have her hair and makeup done. A friend would be informed of the suicide to make sure that after her death, she was neatly positioned and the bedroom was in order.”

Marilyn was not found like that, and I don’t believe she would have ever wanted anyone to find her in that manner. So, did Marilyn really kill herself? I think not. The LAPD needs to make this right, and justice needs to prevail. I will not stop until Marilyn’s death certificate is changed and Dr. Ralph Greenson is charged with Murder.  Two witnesses are still alive in regards to that night, Marvin Iannone and Pat Newcomb. Both Iannone and Newcomb should be charged with Aiding and Abetting in the murder of Marilyn Monroe.
