Bobby, according to Jeanne Carmen, was sexually involved with Marilyn every time he came to the West Coast.
She wanted to be part of his world,” Carmen claimed. “She thought Bobby might be her passport to becoming a great lady instead of just a dumb blonde broad on screen. I saw her diary. She wrote down things he said, even notes on Jimmy Hoffa, whom Bobby despised. He talked of the need to get rid of Fidel Castro.”
“In one entry I read, Marilyn wrote down what Bobby had said about J. Edgar Hoover. “What a cocksucker! What a bastard! Any day now, I expect him to walk in the door wearing one of Jackie’s discarded Dior dresses. Someday, I’m going to get rid of Hoover, that blackmailer.”
