- A REPORTER’S MYSTERIOUS DEATH
It happens all the time.
A celebrity journalist comes to town and everyone tries to impress.
They wine. They dine. They put on a grand show.
And a few weeks later the story comes out and the town gets trashed anyway.
It happened to Atlanta during the 1996 Olympics.
And it happened to Augusta in the spring of 1953.
The journalist was Dorothy Kilgallen.
She's pretty much forgotten today, but half a century ago Kilgallen was part Barbara Walters and part Oprah Winfrey, with a dash of Sylvia Cooper thrown in.
A nationally known newspaper reporter, author and screenwriter, Kilgallen was a Hollywood columnist, a radio personality and a regular panelist on the TV show What's My Line?where her perceptive interviewing skills were on display each week as she tried to guess the profession of a mystery guest.
She came to Augusta 61 years ago this spring because everyone else was coming to Augusta, too.
We were a boom town with construction at Fort Gordon and the "bomb plant" bringing in people and jobs.
Kilgallen was assigned to to write an article on such boom towns for Good Housekeeping Magazine.
Chronicle editor Louis Harris did what he could to keep Killgallen happy - HE TOOK HER TO A BAR.
Specifically to the Bon Air Hotel and plied her with cocktails. He took her to the Colonial Club for socializing. She also went to the Town Tavern for lobster, which she said was pretty good for $3.50.
Kilgallen saw all the commerce and construction and said of our town: "It is as if Scarlett O'Hara had come home from the ball, wiggled out of her satin gown, and put on a space suit."
But Kilgallen was at heart a reporter, and she quickly found another side of Augusta that most boom towns seem to share - gambling.
A lot of it.
When her article came out in April 1953, Kilgallen described visit after visit to Augusta's many gambling establishments.
This was sort of embarrassing because Mayor Hugh Hamilton had run for office the year before on a vow to get rid of it.
After the article came out, Mayor Hamilton demanded an apology..
The Richmond County grand jury vowed, however, to, dutifully announcing it on The Chronicle's front page.
Well, you know what happened?
Not much.
There does not seem to be any follow-up news coverage of grand jury actions or developments.
As for Kilgallen she dashed off to England to cover the June 2 crowning of Queen Elizabeth.
She continued to maintain a high media profile, and was known for having excellent sources within the Washington spy community, frequently offering scoops on Castro and the CIA.
But it was the last years of Dorothy Kilgallen's life that grew very, very interesting.
A Hollywood insider, she knew President Kennedy and his girlfriends and hinted at liaisons with movie star Marilyn Monroe.
After Kennedy's death in Dallas, Kilgallen went to Texas to cover the case. Jack Ruby, the bar owner who shot assassin Lee Harvey Oswald on national TV, gave her private interviews. She told her friends that she was writing a book that would tell the story of who really killed JFK
That book was never written.
In late 1965 -- soon after returning from interviews in Dallas -- Kilgallen was found dead in her New York home.
They said she was sitting up in a bed in a room she never used, apparently reading a best-seller she had already read and not wearing her glasses, without which she could not see.
Oh, and her notes on the Kennedy case were missing. They were never found.
Initially, the story was she'd died of a heart attack. However, further tests indicated a curious alcohol-drug overdose, some said similar to Marilyn Monroe’s.
Louis Harris -- by then the executive editor -- wrote a nice column about Dorothy Kilgallen for the paper.
It was the same paper that JUST months before had unleashed its investigative and editorial staff on what would become one of The Chronicle's most talked about efforts ever -- an undercover series on the problems of gambling in Augusta. - บันเทิง

She also did the only interview with Jack Ruby. She was murdered for what she knew on the JFK assassination.
She interviewed Ruby twice.
She never interview him. Not only has this so called exclusive been refuted by Hugh Aynesworth, as was New York reporter Bob Considine, it has also been disputed by Earl Ruby and his attorney Elmer Gertz. She was one of many reporters that had requested access for an interview but was denied as were others due to security purposes. Here is another source, albeit lengthy, that will further clarify the point.

@White_Rook - Thanks for sharing your thoughts and the link to the article. I was too young to remember Dorothy when she died, but have been a big WML fan on TH-cam and have grown to really like that show and her. I am trying to do my homework via the internet looking at all sources of who killed JFK, and you may be right, but if she died of an overdose or some other means, why was all her notes on the case taken? That is very suspicious to me. If it was all a hoax who cares what she wrote, as it could be proven false. That part I don’t understand.
@@missourimanful I can't answer the question about her notes. I'm still trying to find a credible source on that one.
But one thing I am sure of. She wouldn't claim she had an exclusive and wait months before publishing it. Reporters are funny about that. They try to get their material published ASAP for fear somebody else will "beat them to the punch"
@White_Rook - Thanks for the quick response. Based on your research, who do you think killed JFK? Also have you ever read “The Reporter Who Knew Too Much” by Mark Shaw, or seen him giving talks about his book? I haven’t but am planning on it. I am just trying to do my due diligence.
I discovered Dorothy and What’s My Line only a few months ago, and that cast of characters is without a doubt the most interesting group of people I’ve ever come across. Dorothy was light years ahead of her time. Everything she’s said and done seems modern and holds up extremely well in today’s world. I’ve changed my mind a dozen times between whether she was murdered or if she committed suicide. There are very strong arguments for both. Either way, she was an incredible person and is greatly missed
She was absolutely one of the most amazing people of her era.
Agree
Yes! a very clever brillant reporter indeed!
And she mysteriously died after trying to get to the bottom of the Kennedy assassination
Both her father & sister lived well into their 90's. Ms. Kilgallen still had decades of life & career left. I thought her a brilliant woman. She took her last risk & her husband took her secrets with him to his grave so their 3 kids could live peacefully.
Agree 100%
She really was an amazing reporter! Yes I believe she was murdered!
All evidence of her demise point to her being murdered & a damn cover up. could only be the government.
@@susanford2388 CIA. CIA murdered JFK.
Absolutely
Yes, Iagree.
Of course she was murdered!
Dorothy Kilgallen put together the puzzle of who really snuffed the President."
Someone didn't want her talking, many suspects in her case. From Frank Sinatra, who hated her, the C.I.A., the Mob, more.
Rest In Peace..Dorothy Kilgallen
I use to watch WHAT'S MY LINE all the time as a boy. I was in third grade when the President was killed. At the time I had no idea Ms. Kilgallen knew anything about it.
I could have written your post, verbatim.
Same here
@@nickmecca2024 Same here.
Same here... 3rd grade
It pisses me off even today how them pigs running our country got away with murder of this beautiful Lady whom tried to speak the truth!!! The good news is ,she is in gods hands in heaven and the evil assholes behing her murder are now burning in hell for eternity!! Great payback Dorothy!!! We thank you for your work!!
The Mob murdered our 35th President, then murdered Dorothy Kilgallen, and got away with both crimes.
God Bless you for speaking the truth !!
I wholeheartedly agree with you. She was only 52 & her youngest child Kerry was just 11. Poor boy.
@@acousticshadow4032 yes but which mob
@@endthe.1percent ~ Same Mob Joe Kennedy Sr got to help his son get elected President, and same Mob that RFK went after once JFK appointed him AG.
This was storytelling at its absolute finest. Thanks!
I have enjoyed learning about this amazing woman..ahead of her time... She knew stuff....way to much stuff. Sad.. we don't know what it was.
I know what it was. She knew that Oswald did not act alone and had an idea who some of his associates were. I have researched the subject very thoroughly. Of the people closely associated with the assassination, four had been murdered less than two years after, one of them being Dorothy. Oswald did not kill Kennedy, though he fired at him and hit him twice. The fatal head shot was fired by someone else.
@@bernardedwards8461 The fatal shot was from the CIA with George Bush looking on and a part of it,?
Thank you
@@juleswhy5920 The fatal shot was by the CIA or by the Mafia, I am not surewhich as they were working together. I doubt if Bush was looking on, but some railway workers working on the nearby underpass were looking on and saw a puff of smoke from the grassy knoll.
She was brilliant. Her only mistake was telling people about the book she was writing 😢
Just like Marilyn
@@laliz7025 I thought the same thing
@@artistbrindle Not sure of this is true or not, but I remember reading that Dorothy was flinging with a ne'er do well singer who she promoted in her column as much as possible. I can't remember all the details, but I didn't think she looked that good in the video above because - according to what I read - Dorothy was drinking heavily to keep up with the singer.
@@laliz7025 I heard that too. There are a few really good books out about her last days.
The JFK bombshell was going to be an article or series of articles.
So much for “The Truth Can NOT Hurt You.”
She was the only journalist to ever interview Jack Ruby in prison. She was so intelligent. I remember her on What's My Line. She was murdered.
Several reporters interviewed Jack Ruby in prison. Dorothy Kilgallen had one alcoholic beverage after taking sleeping pills the night she died. Very few people realized in 1965 that was hazardous. The manuscripts of her book included very little about the JFK assassination. There’s simply nothing mysterious about her death. The real conspiracy is by hucksters spreading misinformation to the gullible public.
@@brianarbenz1329 You're clueless.
@@brianarbenz1329 The poorly staged death scene alone is reason enough to open a new investigation. I was a junior in high school when this happened, and knew from every report that it was a cover up. I was shocked at how they covered up her murder, and just forgot about it.
@Deborah Robertson: Jack Ruby was never interviewed by any reporter while in prison. The press was routinely denied due to security concerns. Kilgallen succumbed to alcohol/barbiturate interaction. It was self-administered, the only question being, was an accident or a suicide?
@@stddisclaimer8020You are a mentally shorthanded person who understands nothing about violence against women. Lee Oswald acted alone when beating his wife and when firing his rifle in Dealey Plaza. Jack Ruby acted alone. Ron Pataky acted alone. Ron’s motive for murdering his girlfriend Dorothy Kilgallen had nothing to do with Oswald or Ruby. Ron has composed creepy poetry, accessible online, and done phone interviews that prove he is a narcissistic sociopath. You never met Dorothy Kilgallen, so your assertions about her lifestyle choices contribute to the character assassinations of women who have been slain by boyfriends. If you have a sister or daughter, her boyfriend can kill her by poisoning liquid she is drinking, then police officers can smear her character.
Thank you for discussing this... dorothy was so intelligent and her story I have known for a while. She was investigating the assassination of JFK, and that was why she was killed. I believe that... it wasn't the gambling story, she was uncovering bigger this right before her questionable death.
I’m a mere millennial and honestly knew nothing of her other than what I saw of uploaded episodes of “What’s My Line?” I wasn’t aware of how prestigious her journalism career was nor her connections and contacts with people of wildly differing backgrounds and occupations. Can anyone recommend a thorough biography written or documentary about her life? It’s amazing Hollywood hasn’t jumped at the chance to create a bio-pic about her life. If the right screenwriter, director, casting, and cinematography come together it could be a contender for instant Oscar or Golden Globes bait.
Mark Shaw has written several books with a new one coming next month.
@@2Madre I read Shaw sold the movie rights and think it would be an incredible film.
@@s.a.street3231 I just got the new book and can't put it down. Shaw is such a brilliant investigator.
Let us clarify! Dorothy did not live in California. She lived and worked mostly in New York City. But. She was friends with, and wrote about Hollywood people in her column.
She should have not told people about her investigation.
I'm going to mock you...

On page 4 of the attached magazine article about Dorothy Kilgallen, you find writer Sara Jordan’s first reference to Ron Pataky. It is followed by many quotes from him. He is described by the New York County district attorney’s office as a person of interest in an investigation of her death.

I was born in the 50s, grew up in the 60s, but don’t remember Dorothy Kilgallen. I recently found an old episode of what’s my line and met Dorothy Kilgallen for the first time. A short three hours later found the story of her unusual death. So unfortunate that as soon as I discovered her she seemed to be gone! I love murder mysteries and this has truly peaked my interest.
Read Spartacus Educational about her.
Thank you! I remember Dorothy!
Killgallen was not in Hollywood she was an NYC socialite top rung journalist.
Yeah, how do you get THAT wrong? That's like saying the Kennedy Family compound was in Arizona.
But there is no doubt she was murdered by the Mob with the complicity of the government. So, the same stew of criminals who killed JFK.
Lived on 68th st UES
She was both.
Dorothy was going to New Orleans to meet a source with information about the JFK assasination. She was suicided right before she was to go. The source she was going to meet was likely Jim Garrison (movie - JFK).Her death adds a lot of weight to what Garrison had unvovered.
proof?
@@fiveofever2971 th-cam.com/video/-3plSiWAq20/w-d-xo.html
I’ve had the same inclination since Garrison was investigating what turned into the Clay Shaw conspiracy trial.
@Charles Maeger: Your reference to the unhinged conspiracy zealot Garrison has "unvovered" only that you have trouble with spelling.
So unfortunate….just recently read about her…
Good video piece - thanks for posting
WOW, !!!!!! thanks for sharing 👍
Ty for this
I don’t know where you say she’s was one part Barbara Walters & Opra. Killgalen paved the way for them and other women in journalism today. Oh yeah I believe she was murdered too.
The mafia silenced her !
Hardly forgotten
Today, we are aware and cautious. Too bad.
Excellent and Outstanding Video!!!
There is a great book called "Masters of Deceit" an epic novel of the monstrous plot behind the Kennedy assassination, written by A. Tarnavsky. I urge anyone who wants to learn more about the mysterious deaths of Dorothy Kilgallen, William PItzer, Jack Ruby, and countless others, and Johnson's involvement in the JFK assassination to read this book. It is an absolute eye-opener.
A very interesting article. I am currently including Dorothy Kilgallen in a book series and short story series I am writing.

C. S. Lewis has mental health issues. Jason Chapman no longer considers this page of TH-cam comments to be important.
I wish that the JFK investigators would use Jack Ruby's real name Jacob Rubinstein ... he said that he was at the jail the day he assassinated Oswald ... was as an interpreter for an Israeli newspaper.
Little known fact ... Ben Gurian was in Dallas the day of JFK's assassination.
Who was Michael Collins Piper?
Average US citizen's brain collapses when you show them evidence of Israeli involvement in JFK's assassination and 9/11. They would rather believe impossible fairy tales than the evidence especially if the sacred cows like FBI, CIA or Israel are involved.
@@tomdoh345 God bless Michael Collins Piper
Joe Citizen Rubinstein hu, that figures. Not sure but I believe JFK wanted peace in the Middle East (sorry he did want peace). Ben Gurion would have none of that. I do not know who MCP was.
@@joecitizen6755 Johovah?
"Ben Gurian was in Dallas the day of JFK's assassination." "everyone'' was in Dallas that day, a lot of people knew something big was going to happen.
This little clip doesn't do Dorothy justice. Her story is much more important than this little clip shows.
@T Porchia There is no financial incentive for anyone to improve on this video. Information about Dorothy doesn’t make money. The two books about her by Mark Shaw come from vanity publishers. He paid for people to read them. The publishers didn’t.
th-cam.com/video/VYDaqto22NY/w-d-xo.html
"author and former criminal defense attorney, Mark Shaw, speaks about his book "The Reporter Who Knew Too Much" and its follow-up, "Denial of Justice." Each chronicle not only his 12 years of research but most importantly, the life and times and mysterious death of What's My Line? TV star and crack investigative reporter Dorothy Kilgallen and her 18-month investigation of the Dallas tragedies which included being the only reporter to interview Jack Ruby at his trial. Shaw also discusses his controversial exposure of the most important JFK assassination documents in history, the Jack Ruby trial transcripts." just watched the exposé worth it
She was one hundred times the reporter that Oprah, and Walters was. She had guts, where Winfrey, and Walters lack common sense even.
T Porchia You are correct with your response thanks. I remember B. Walters doing an interview with Assad in Syria. She asked the most stupid question "why won't you allow western reporters into your country? Duh, aren't you a westerner Barbara?
Thank you Bill 💋
Why did all her notes on the JFK case disappear????
You have heard about fire, haven’t you?
Love his Accent !! awesome reporting Kirby !!
A recent TH-cam video shows an author who had received the transcripts of the hearing that she would have known all about because she had been present at that very event.
Mark Shaw
Kirby.that voice of yours is amazing.overall a good production.well done
Dorothy Kilgallen death is is an unsolved mystery.
Yes! but still an alcohol barbiturate overdoses death which was very common those day's 50's&60's era. But! the way they founded her dead was very bizarre (weird) indeed!
@Marvin Martian Dorothy was not an alcoholic or abuser of prescription sleep aids. Her two hairdressers confirmed this. You can access video interviews of both of them.
Not true. It's known. Mark Shaw does a good job explaining it in his books, talks, etc.
Mark Shaw's book is nothing but tabloid trash. Hugh Aynesworth was a Dallas reporter back then, he covered the whole Ruby trial and the supposed meeting between Kilgallen and Ruby never took place. I believe she just leaned over for a moment to say something to Ruby during a break. Hugh is still alive, and has said the same thing from day one. Ask yourself one question, if Kilgallen had this vital information, why did she die almost 2 years after Ruby?? Don't you think "they" would have wanted to get to her long before this?? She had plenty of time to spill the beans, yet not a single word to anyone, about anything. Bogus.
@@davidhenschel1990 Yes! indeed she was a social drinker & 3 kinds of barbs in her system that cause her death is very suspicious to me. Somebody like Pataki just poisioned her drinks.
Right after her death, before she was even taken out of the house, her butler stated that FBI agents, or who said they were FBI agents came in the house, and took put boxes of her papers. The Butler was told by the agents to keep his mouth shut. The same butler saw Dorothy when she got in that night and that she had a gentleman with her. That gentleman was one Ron Pataky. The Butler stated that he was still awake, and her the gentleman leave by the back door, shortly after seeing him.
Nick Knack Pataky Wacky, Give the Press a Bone.
I haven't forgotten Her...
Interestingly she died on the night of the East Coast Blackout of 1965!
She died on Nov.8th and the Blackout was on the 9th.
@@larciabella thank you for the correction!
@@johnscanlan9335 - It's alright, John. You just blacked out. 😎
Mark Shaw has explained so well about Kilgallen ..what a terrific woman , she was killed
She was classy. Unlike most of the people involved in the reporting world today.
Oprah not even in her league.
The min.he mentioned that she was doing research on kennedy, yeah she stuck her nose where it didn't belong and they did it.
And here I thought when I was a kid in the 50s that her only occupation was being a panelist on "What's My Line". You know, like Kitty Carlyle and Henry Morgan.
I had no idea, living in the UK, that this lady was such a fantastic journalist... possibly the best the USA has ever produced. I have no doubt she was killed.... she seemed a very sweet lady to me, but her intellect was off the scale. R.I.P
Ron Pataki was involved, if not the murderer.
I've read that her downfall was her neediness for men. Her vulnerability, because she wasn't a vulnerable woman for a woman of her time. She had a lot of power, in her own right, and had a finger on the pulse of society, which is why she wasn't allowed to tell society what she knew. They control the narrative, and the counter narrative.
The more you look in to it, the more things don't make sense and foul play seems logical.
Nice video :)
great!
`
Dorothy Killgallen was from New York and the show What's My Line was also in New York. She was not a Hollywood reporter.
Just goes to show that "SILENCE IS SECURITY"
Definitely taken out..
Dorothy was the biggest media star of the 20th Century. See my video about her career. Dorothy Kilgallen, gone but not forgotten.
th-cam.com/video/NT5gdZyEKIQ/w-d-xo.html
In your country maybe, she was certainly a character. We have/had equals here in Britain...
If people in the United Kingdom are enjoying videos about Dorothy Kilgallen or various episodes of What’s My Line on which she uses her intelligence, they should thank Americans for providing the suspense or amusement.
If Americans hadn’t revived interest in this woman more than 25 years after her death, English people would not have.
The reason that the Marilyn Monroe conspiracy got multimedia exposure as far back as 1985 is that journalist Anthony Summers, who was based in Ireland and the United Kingdom at the time, had been familiar with Marilyn since he was a child. Millions of Irish and English people knew who she was even if they had been born during her last years or after she died. Her movies were telecast there and revived in cinemas in London and Dublin throughout the 1960s and 1970s.
So it was easy for a Londoner to tell a Dublin resident that twenty years ago Marilyn Monroe died possibly under mysterious circumstances. They were already familiar with the American person whose death might have been suspicious.
But the name Dorothy Kilgallen meant nothing to them for many decades until Americans uploaded video of her to TH-cam. It is nice that a United Kingdom resident such as you is learning that an American woman could have been famous because of her intelligence long ago. You’re welcome.
She was a way too open about her theory. Funny how all her files disappeared after her death.
What did anyone DO? We must find her notes!
she did write the book
Not about JFK
Interesting ✝️🇺🇸💕
People can speculate on this case and endless others, but we will likely never know the truth.
She will never ever be forgotten or her murder
and her secretary assistant was soon dead shortly after her.
I hadn't heard of that.
Do you have any links to share?
Thanks.
she had years after her interview with ruby to state the facts but never did...she had a huge column she could have put it all on the table...her thing was to try to sell her book so she said all that stuff to make people buy her book
I am going buy both
Removed by Poppy. Just like JFK
She was absolutely murdered
Poor Dorothy knew too much.
Poor Dorothy said too much.
reading that book about her right now...very chilling reading about JFK and the aftermath
Book on her bed was upside down.
Any reason card player at 2:28 has lady bug on his finger, I guess they really are good luck as he has a pair of pocket kings. At any rate, had been watching old reruns of "What's My Line," recently and was surprised to see how this beloved reporter was mysteriously killed.
and the book was upside down as well
She said the liason she hinted at wasn't marilyn and jfk...but marilyn and someone else.
Read a bio on Dorothy years ago (1989s). Her investigative insight was keen. Also knew too much. Connected to the Kennedys, the connection to the mafia to many public figures and celebrities, as well as Marilyn Monroe, Jack Ruby and Oswald and Hoover, (need to find that book) .
This video presented nothing and said nothing. A waste of 5 minutes I can never recover.
The man that shot Oswald conveniently died too.
That was a good finish to this peice,who benefits from gambling?DK never made it to New Orleans.
That was fair.
The Truth, it Can be dangerous,
Kilgallen was ahead of her time. She knew what we all now know. That Oswald was a friend of Kennedy; that he did not shoot the president; that Kennedy was shot from behind with a revolver or a hand gun; that Kennedy was alive when he was taken into hospital but finished off there; that the bodies were swapped so there would be no proof of any of this. Kilgallen was not brilliant. She was very mediocre. But she smelled the story and she went for it. Sadly, what the mediocre minded Ms. Kilgallen did not know as that one of her best friends, a co-panelist on `What`s My line?`, was working for the Home Team. It was either he or someone else whom she knew and trusted that gained access to her apartment on the night she was murdered. The report mentions there was no forced entry so Kilgallen had to have known and trusted the man. Shall we all be PARANOID about door men cause the concierge in her building obviously knew whoever the friend was on the night of Kilgallen`s death he arrived with 2/3 thugs (probably dressed as work men alleged there to fix the plumbing or whatever)!!
Definitely murdered. She made the mistake of telling people about the book.
In years to come the same stories will be coming out about 9/11
Dismantle the FBI and CIA forever and this kind of stuff will never happen again.
Everybody dies
C.I.A...
COOL VIDEO ! SUNDAY 5/26/24 MAY 26, 2024
How do you kill some one with prescription drugs and alcohol without using force? Why would you use a method like this that carries a very high risk for failure when there are other easier means of making a death look like an accident? Has there ever been a confirmed case of someone being killed by a stranger in this manner?
It could have been the boyfriend he could have drugged her drink
It was never investigated, according to Mark Shaw and the current DA.
You hold a gun to their head and tell them to drink from the glass in front of them. Works every time.
Marilyn Monroe ring any bells?
@@gfriedman99 Yeah, and then what do you do? Hang around for the 2 hours it will likely take before they go into cardiac arrest? I don't think so.
Where was Mossad agent, Saban!
For wrestle not with flesh and but against rulers and powers in high places...Ephesians 6:12...
A REAL AMERICAN TRUE JOURNALIST AND EXTRAORDINARY WOMAN THAT EVER LIVED....After her, no more
Was Atlanta one of her enemies?
she was murdered plain and simple.
So she supposedly committed suicide in exactly the same manner as Marilyn Monroe? What a sham, she was murdered.
Kilgallen nick name was cookie
not since phenom Carl Spackler's first time in Augusta in "Caddyshack" has there been a bigger star
It’s in the hole!!!
There won't be any money. But on our deathbed you will receive total consciousness . . .
@@erniebuchinski3614 ...gunga galunga gunga gunga lagunga ....
Kilgallen had one over-the-railing exchange with Ruby in court, where he could have come forward and said anything, her reporting was just going to be one chapter of a larger book about trials she had covered and was not due to be published until months later, hardly an urgent expose. She did not die until *twenty months* later, said nothing explosive in her regular news column, her trademark boasting aside, never displayed any sign she possessed information dangerous to her own safety, even appearing on her regular gig on What's My Line without a care in the world.
She was hardly less high-profile a person than JFK himself and murdering her would attract a massive amount of attention, publicity and investigation. How exactly did some phantom conspiracy approach and recruit the cops on the New York City Police Department to become accessories to murder to no gain to themselves whatsoever without any of them ever cracking, confessing or being found out in 57 years.
Oddly enough, whatever sinister villains had to take a massive risk to "rub her out" never touched any witness in or near the limo, in the plaza, filming the assassination, in the TSBD, on the Secret Service, in the motorcade, at the Tippit crime scene, Oswald's landlady, the shoe store clerk, any witness in the theater, any of the medical staff at either hospital, Ruby himself, Jim Garrison or any of his stooges, or any of the crackpot conspiracy authors who spent years crowing loud and long about how they were going to blow the case wide open...
And Marilyn Monroe's similar in bed drug induced claim as causal still similarly witness free, but circumstantially questionable
Who believes Oswald acted alone? js
Then why did they lock the classified docs up for another 75 years. Oh yeah nothing to see here…. Yeah right.
Aaron Z tosses around a lot of misinformation! Dorothy's fatal flaw was tipping her hand. She told friends she was going to blow the lid off the Kennedy assassination. Shortly thereafter she was dead from an alcohol and barbiturate cocktail and all her notes on JFK were gone.
@@mind-brainstudio927 and you toss around a lot of paranoia and misinformation. I repeat my above comments.
Who is Sylvia Cooper?

As a little kid I’d see Dorothy Kilgallen on What’s My Line? I read the Mark Shaw book on her and just don’t see anything about her passing other than it was unfortunate. It was sad she passed but I don’t see any conspiracies. I’d like to see Dorothy remembered for the great talent and celebrity that she had been. She was huge in early television history. An absolute giant.
