Questionable Celebrity Deaths While many people accept police reports, many famous suicides have contradicting evidence that states it would be a murder such as theories like Jimi Hendrix being murdered by his manager, Kevin Sullivan having reason to order the killing of Chris Benoit, his wife, and their son, or how Marilyn Monroe’s death may have been ordered by the Kennedy’s, and more famously, the theory that Kurt Cobain could have been murdered by Courtney Love.

Chris was found dead along with his wife Nancy (both left), and his son Daniel. The deaths were ruled a double murder-suicide, and has been linked to severe brain damage and what is commonly referred to as “roid-rage”.

Marilyn was threatening to go public with her affair with Bobby, so Bobby took a few of his friends from the LAPD inside Monroe’s house, and searched for her little red journal. This is how Marilyn had so many drugs in her system but no odor from her mouth, they were given to her forcefully in an enema. This can only be described as a violent life ending nightmare for Marilyn. Many superstars have their final moments spent in fear and agony, such as Kurt
