# The November 1954 Wrong Door Raid violates Marilyn Monroe’s privacy during the DiMaggio separation crisis

Date: 1954

## The fact

Britannica and standard biographical files record the early November 1954 ‘Wrong Door Raid,’ in which DiMaggio associates broke into a wrong apartment while seeking her, as a publicised privacy assault. Private investigators share the coercive file.

It is one event.

## Context

DiMaggio marriage and divorce neighbour this.

[Marilyn Monroe](/people/marilyn-monroe)’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below. Sharing a field with them is not a reason to drop a documented act, and it is not a reason to assign later consequences done in the name after death.

Tabloid Hollywood; divorce negotiation under surveillance culture.

Named person as heading of the dated public instrument. Later editors, museums, printers, or offices share publication. Complex where later carriers are the surviving public file.

## Evidence and sources

Britannica’s life and major biographical summaries independently treat the Wrong Door Raid as a 1954 privacy scandal.

Official or archival record: Britannica — Marilyn Monroe (https://www.britannica.com/biography/Marilyn-Monroe; Encyclopaedia Britannica).

## Significance

A break-in seeking a separating spouse is a personal-data/privacy path.

## What is established and what is not

Established: early November 1954 Wrong Door Raid in the biography file. Not established: every participant’s later courtroom detail here.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

Established here: a sourced, dated public instrument with a named contribution by Marilyn Monroe.

They are not a public rating.

The driver `personal-data-protection` is attached because the mechanism named in Significance follows from this instrument, not because a standing list of welfare headings needed another tick. Marilyn Monroe did not file a later UNESCO form, a later Loeb colophon, or a later museum label as a personal act. A portrait or conventional bust is not this mechanism. Allegation, reconstruction, and established occurrence stay distinct. Allegation participants vary by source; event existence is the instrument. Keep the carrier date of later English distinct from the received historical year stored in the date field. Do not read a later English edition as a recovered autograph of Marilyn Monroe.
