Book Claims A Private Investigator Confirmed Marilyn Monroe And JFK’s Long-Rumored Affair

A newly released book titled The Fixer: Moguls, Mobsters, Movie Stars, and Marilyn gives shocking insights into the life of marine veteran Fred Otash, who reportedly knew unsettling secrets about Hollywood stars like blonde bombshell Marilyn Monroe.

The army man turned private detective died in 1992 at the age of 70. However, he left behind a stash of investigative files later uncovered by co-author Manfred Westphal with Otash’s daughter’s permission. Westphal and his partner Josh Young were inspired to tell Otash’s story, revealing dark facts about Marilyn and the late U.S. President JFK.

Many celebrities hired Otash

Thanks to his intelligence and familiarity with technology in his prime, he was the go-to man for many Hollywood stars who needed to uncover— or cover confidential information. In 1985, actor Peter Lawford employed his services to clear up incriminating content about John F. Kennedy and his brother, Robert Kennedy who were both romantically linked with Marilyn.

Otash, who referred to Peter as “JFK’s sexual archivist,” claimed the president often held “sexual congress” with the sought-after Marilyn. “Yes, these were audio recordings. Those were made at Peter Lawford’s Santa Monica beach house,” Josh said, teasing the much-anticipated story. “And they were made through a series of circumstances that I’ll let the readers delve into in the book.”

More shocking revelations include Otash’s claim about hearing Marilyn die in 1962 as he was tasked with surveying her closely. He alleged that the Gentlemen Prefer Blondes star was on the phone with Peter and then Robert before she passed away. “Say goodbye to your wife Pat,” she had said. “Say goodbye to the president and say goodbye to yourself because you’re a nice guy.”

Josh noted that the book might give more insight into the circumstances surrounding Marilyn’s death, which has remained a topic of interest for many decades. “I think, for me, it adds another piece to the puzzle,” the writer explained. “Marilyn’s death is one of those things that has been mythologized, misconstrued and written about even many of the people who were involved at the time.”
