"In the days before Kilgallen died, many witnesses saw that she was carrying a satchel full of papers believed to be associated with JFK's death. Those papers disappeared when her body was found. Shaw's investigation suggests strongly that the FBI got to her townhouse before police and removed those papers and other evidence that would have linked the bureau to Kennedy's assassination on Nov. 22, 1963 in Dallas. The official cause of Kilgallen's death was ruled acute ethanol and barbiturate intoxication."
"But Shaw, in his earlier book "The Reporter Who Knew Too Much," raised questions about the strange state of the scene where she was found - she was in a different bedroom than usual, fully dressed, and her friends noted the room appeared staged. These facts suggested her death was not accidental and might be connected to her investigation into the assassination."
New York City will rename a portion of East 68th Street near Park Avenue after Dorothy Kilgallen. Kilgallen died at age 52 and was a prominent newspaper columnist and long-time panelist on CBS-TV's What's My Line? She was investigating President John F. Kennedy's assassination and reportedly carried a satchel of papers tied to that probe. Those papers disappeared when her body was found. Some investigations allege the FBI reached her townhouse before police and removed evidence. The official cause of death was ruled acute ethanol and barbiturate intoxication, but scene details and a spiked drink theory suggest foul play.
