Can you imagine that your life is exposed through microphones installed in every corner of your home? At first instance, the mere fact that you spy sounds horrifying.However, this was the technique of Fred Otash, a private detective who was hunting the secrets best kept of movie stars there by the fifties.
«Gestapo Otash»: the nickname of a spy
«Gestapo Otash» as they used to call him, he was the best informed man in Hollywood , he started working in the magazine Confidential and later became the man most feared by the stars, a true spy who not only snooped into the lives of celebrities but also worked for them, like Lana Turner, Bette Davis , even the same Marilyn Monroe asked for their services, what they did not know is that they were also on their spy list.
The most controversial cases in which Fred Otash was involved was in that of actor Rock Hudson when he declared himself homosexual and that of the true cause of death of the sex simbol of the golden years, Marilyn Monroe .
The controversial recordings of Rock Hudson and Marylin Monroe
In 2013, Fred Otash's daughter, Colleen, facilitated the original documents and recordings to Hollywood Reporter , which had been stored for more than 20 years in a warehouse in the San Fernando Valley.
As for the case of Rock Hudson , he was sent to investigate by his own wife, Phyllis Gates , who suspected homose Xuality of her husband and what time before had forced the actor to perform the Rorschach test , a psychological analysis whose purpose is to leave dormant the sexuality of the individual.The recording of the event was dated January 21, 1958.
"You told me that you had seen butterflies and snakes.Therapist explained to me that butterflies are synonymous with femininity and that snakes represent penises.I am not condemning you, but, if you recognize the problem, you should do something to fix it.Everyone knows that you pick up boys from the street shortly after We got married and you still do it thinking that being married serves as a cover for you! »
This was the moment where Hudson admitted his homosexuality.
Yes No doubt the case that most caught my attention was that of the missing Marilyn Monroe .According to the notes found, Otash was hired by tycoon Howard Hughes , who was looking for ways to discredit the Kennedy and for that he had to watch over the house of Peter LawFord , cradled by these famous politicians.
"When the house of Lawford was punctured, Monroe was not part of the plan."- reads in his notes.- "It was to find out what the Democrats were doing on behalf of Hughes and Nixon . Monroe became a byproduct."- I assure.« Yes, we had the house of Lawford .Yes, I heard a tape of Jack Kennedy fucking Monroe .But I don't want to enter in the groans and laments of their relationship.They were having a sexual relationship.And period ».
As we mentioned before, Monroe was a faithful Otash client, who requested their services to put microphones on the phones and thus be able to record the Conversations I had, however, the detective installed these devices throughout the house.
In the notes that were found you can read: « I heard Marilyn Monroe die «. Without giving more detail of this, he begins to describe a strong fight between Lawford , Monroe and Bobby Kennedy just a few hours before the death of the sex simbol .
«She said it felt like a piece of meat.It was a violent discussion about their relationship and the commitment and promises he made to her.She was screaming a lot and they were trying to calm her down.She was in the bedroom and Bobby took the pillow and covered her with her on the bed so the neighbors wouldn't listen to her.Finally, she shut up and then he just wanted get out of there.»
It wasn't until the 80s, that Otash pointed to the Angeles Times that didn't He was aware of the death of Marilyn until one day after the events when Lawford contacted him and ordered him to withdraw any evidence from the house of Monroe that could frame him or the Kennedy in the death of the actress.
The mystery surrounding the death of the private detective
Fred Otash died of a cardiac arrest at age 70, according to Hollywood Reporter, when he heard the news, his lawyer, Arthur Crowley , opted to empty the apartment of Otash, taking with him the filing cabinet where the famous private detective kept his investigations secret , in which it is speculated that he also spied to American actress and singer, Judy G arland, for his psychological problems, his addiction to alcohol and different narcotics.Similarly, he was involved with the murder of Johny Stompanato , a famous ganster , sentimental couple of Lana Turner.
Although these documents and recordings came to light more than two years ago, they have not been cataloged as a proof firm and forceful of what actually happened in the lives of these celebrities, on the contrary, it has joined the multiple urban legends that have surrounded by all the stars of Hollywood and that they might not be the last ones.
