Secret testimonies from those who gathered at Marilyn Monroe's death bed are set to he broadcast for the first time on an upcoming TV news show. On April 22, producers at CBS show "48 Hours Mystery" will air interviews with witnesses, who were at her bedside when the movie icon passed on August 5, 1962.
The interviews were recorded on audio tape in the early 1980s as part of a review into the mysterious inquest following Monroe's apparent suicide. Conducted by the Los Angeles County district attorney's office, the review - on the 20th anniversary of Monroe's death - was held to put to rest rumors that the star had been murdered. Following their updated investigation, officials declared the actress committed suicide or accidentally overdosed.
CBS bosses obtained the material, called "The Marilyn Tapes," earlier this year after filing a request under the California Public Records Act. The footage will feature an interview with Monroe's doctor, Hyman Engelberg, who arrived at the actress' home before police on the night of her death. He describes his surprise at finding multiple medications on her bedside table that he had not prescribed.
