Welcome to the Eric Matexis show with your host Eric Matexis.

Folks, we're talking to Mark Shaw, the brand new book, collateral damage.

Mark, you're getting into some amazing stuff here.

So just keep going if you don't mind.

Well, my research show that there was this problem with the barbituates.

And I was obviously curious to begin with because Nguu-chis, I have a copy if you want to show it to you of the actual autopsy report.

And it said, first of all, she died of barbituate overdose.

And then they moved that on into probable suicide.

But as far as the clues went, I was concerned about what was not found in her stomach.

These barbituates and all of that.

So the second thing had to do with the actions of the housekeeper right after the police arrived when the body was found.

And Detective Clemens talked about the fact that she seemed very nervous and all of that.

And she was actually doing what?

She was washing clothes in the washing machine in the middle of the night.

Well, Dorothy Kilgallen was great with finding these little clues at times when she was working on the JFK assassination.

I wondered why in the world was this woman doing the wash?

Well, if you look and I have a picture of the of Maryland's bedroom, you can see that the sheets there and everything are all messed up and everything.

But it looks like that they may have been replaced.

There's a blanket there that was never talked about or anything.

So it may be wonder if somehow or another something happened on those sheets that would have caused them to be replaced and the housekeeper to do the wash in the middle of the night.

That was my second clue as to something was wrong.

All right.
