Marilyn Monroe And Kennedy Sex Tape?

Marilyn Monroe And Kennedy Sex Tape?

www.LawFuel.co.nz

That's the question on some lips, but the $1.5 million purchase of a grainy, 15-minute 16mm sex tape showing Marilyn Monroe pleasuring an anonymous man dates to the early 50s and according to the collector, New Yorker Keya Morgan. The footage was believed to have been analysed by FBI boss J Edgar Hoover to establish it was one of the Kennedy's, Bob or Jack, who featured, although the time line doesn't fit.

The tape was tracked down through the FBI who, according to Morgan, "confiscated the original footage - but not before [an] informant made a copy of it, which is what was just sold by his son, Morgan said. There are heavily redacted, declassified FBI documents talking about a "French-type" film. They state the informant "exhibited [to agents] a motion picture which depicted deceased actress Marilyn Monroe committing a perverted act upon a unknown male," Morgan said. The purchaser does not intend to exploit it in the manner of current Internet sex tape exploitation.
