My Journey ends here...
AMBULANCE
One of the many mysteries surrounding Marilyn's death concerns the allegations about an ambulance called to the 5th Helena Drive, during the night of August 4th to August 5th 1962.
Some biographers claims that a private company answered to an anonymous call in the morning of August 5th and
that they sent an ambulance to Marilyn's residence.
This story has had several versions. One of them pretends that the Shaefer Ambulance Service
(
)
sent a vehicle driven by Murray Leibowitz. They took Marilyn who was
into coma, and managed to resuscitate her during the ride to the Santa Monica Hospital.
Dr Ralph Greenson replaced them, gave her a massive shot and ask the ambulancemen to bring her back to her home, making them swore the secret.
In May 1986, Jame E.Hall wrote an article in Hustler
magazine, in which he pretended that he was the driver of the
Shaefer company ambulance this particular night, but Dr Greenson had
prevented him and the nurse, to take Marilyn.
He claims that on August 4th 1962, with his team-mate Murray Leibowitz, they were just at a few minutes from Fifth Helena Drive when they received a call. When they arrived, he remembers that he had recognized Pat Newcomb, the hysterical woman and remembers the presence of Peter Lawford and Dr Greenson. He assures that he had found Marilyn in a coma on the couch of the house, making clear that they had put her on her back, trying to resuscitate her.
Another
version prétends that, after the discovery of the lifeless body
of Marilyn, Dr Greenson who couldn't reach her physician, Dr Hyman Engelberg,
called an ambulance. This one arrived too late for doing a gastric
lavage or a resuscitation. After that, the ambulancemen would have been
fired.
