Death of 50s-60s star Dorothy Kilgallen

She was an award winning journalist and a panelist on the show β€œwhat’s my line”. She is best known for the amazing performance in writing a gossip column but lesser known for her mysterious death. I won’t spoil it but the death is potentially linked to the death of JFK and Marilyn Monroe. She knew who killed JFK then was murdered and everyone turned their back on her. the autopsy was also surprising!

Topics: Mafia, fame, presidential murder, journalism, cold case, investigative journalism, personal accounts and videos, autopsy, mid 1900s murder

If Dorothy Kilgallen committed suicide why was her research never found

Dorothy Kilgallen was a famous personality and journalist. She was the only person granted a Jack Ruby interview. She claimed she was about to crack the JFK assassination. She committed "suicide" before she could do so.

Those of us who are skeptical of the official explanation are criticized. But her research was missing after her death. So, if her death was an "innocent" suicide where did her research go?

And on a related note, what happened to files held by Ruby's lawyer (Melvin Belli) after Ruby's death?

Edit: note that I list Melvin Belli as Ruby's lawyer above, but based on a link provided by Govnor-II I tracked down at least eight attorneys Ruby used. I list them in the comments.

The Lonesome Death of Dorothy Kilgallen

When her hairdresser found her she was propped up in bed, still wearing her make-up, false eyelashes, false hairpiece, and earrings. And one more thing--dead to this world. Her hairdresser and friend Marc Sinclaire, found this odd, as she would normally never go to bed in this condition. But that was not the only strange thing her hairdresser noticed when he found the body. Dorothy was not wearing her regular pajamas, but instead a blue matching peignoir and robe. A book was on her bed, a book she had finished reading two weeks earlier. Her reading glasses, which she needed, were nowhere nearby. She was found in the third floor bedroom of the townhouse. She always slept in the fifth floor bedroom.

Her husband, Richard Kollmar was asleep in the fourth story of the townhouse. He gave inconsistent accounts of what happened that night. He claimed that Dorothy arrived home at 11:30 p.m., in good spirits, and went off to write her column. But those who saw her in the Regency lounge reported her being there far past midnight 2 a.m. Later, when asked by friends about Dorothy’s JFK investigation, he replied, β€œI'm afraid that will have to go to the grave with me." And it did when Kollmar died of a drug overdose in 1971.

Later, it would be discovered that her JFK file that she had been compiling for years would go missing.

Today, Dorothy Kilgallen’s name will go unrecognized by the current generation but she was at one time one of the first of a new breed of celebrity journalists. By the mid-50s, she was the most famous journalist in America, made even more apparent by her 15-year stint as a panelist on the popular CBS show, What’s My Line. The events surrounding her untimely and mysterious death have become intertwined with the lore of the Kennedy assassination. She would be one of many suspicious deaths in the case.

She started her career in journalism at the age of 17 covering crime stories and earned a reputation of good, thorough reporter--someone that left no stone unturned. By 1950 her column was running in 146 papers, and reaping 20 million readers. Kilgallen’s style was a mixture of gossip, movie star news, and politics.

As time went on her reporting got closer to heart of power in this country. She was one of the first reporters to imply, which we now know to be true, that the CIA was working with the mob to assassinate Fidel Castro. Declassified documents show that the FBI was monitoring Kilgallen’s activities since the 1930s while the CIA closely

Dorothy Kilgallen case in the news

The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office is looking into the mysterious death 51 years ago of newspaper writer and β€œWhat’s My Line?” star Dorothy Kilgallen, who was investigating the JFK assassination, The Post has learned.

The stunning development comes after a new book, β€œThe Reporter Who Knew Too Much,” suggests Kilgallen was murdered to shut down her relentless pursuit of a Mafia don linked to JFK and Lee Harvey Oswald.

Joan Vollero, a spokeswoman for DA Cyrus Vance Jr., confirmed that a staffer has read the book, and reviewed a letter from author Mark Shaw citing new leads, medical evidence, and witnesses overlooked when Kilgallen, 52, died suddenly on Nov. 8, 1965, at the peak of her career.

[Dots][WikiLeaks] Marilyn Monroe and Kennedy's sexual affair, CIA, Howard Rothberg, Dorothy Kilgallen, Alien artifacts and Project Moon Dust

These info are from WikiLeaks, The Global Intelligence Files leak during 2012-2013

I mean holyshit if this is all facts and truth...


MURDER, INC.

The strain mounted on the CIA by Kennedy was reaching a flash point of wills and with the Noresenko affair(13) driving Angleton to obsession, a UFO leak crisis brought new strains on Angleton as he had learned that Hollywood screen star Marilyn Monroe's phone conversation with a New York art dealer(14) discussing Kennedy's secret visit to an undisclosed military base to see alien artifacts and her disdain over the soured relationship she had endured with President Kennedy and his brother, the United States Attorney General had been recorded by CIA domestic electronic surveillance experts. Since 1955, Monroe had been under surveillance by the CIA and the FBI had maintained a security dossier on her because of her marriage with a well known American writer who was suspected of having communist affiliations and her trip to Russia and the press coverage she received while she was there.(15) The wire tap report also mentions nationally recognized New York syndicated reporter Dorothy Kilgallen as having conversations with Monroe regarding the Roswell UFO crash of 1947 and President Kennedy's politically motivated NASA Apollo moon program. Dorothy Kilgallen made headlines in 1955 when she disclosed a private conversation with a British cabinet official that UFOs are real and that the U.S. and British authorities considered the matter as the highest importance. The significance of the wire tap has to do with the fact that Monroe was murdered the following day in her Brentwood condo. According to internationally recognized private investigator and director of the Nick Harris Detective Agency, Milo Speriglio, Monroe was the victim of a national security management hit by the CIA and the mob.(16) The suggestion that somehow the CIA was involved in a domestic murder of an American citizen is not too far fetched when considering the past abuses coming from Angleton's CI program of 'absolute security at any cost' philosophy. Whether Angleton authorized the hit is not known, but the modus operandi of the way her body was found and moved around and the fashion in which the autopsy records were changed to reflect suicide and the theft of her secret red dairy one day after her autopsy is similar t
