As the newsmen sprawled on the lawn, trampled down rose bushes or broke branches from trees to get unobstructed views for their cameras, a crowd lined the street. From Marilyn's lawyer, Jerry Giesler, newsmen picked up bits, reported that Marilyn was upstairs sick in bed "with a virus" while Joe "brewed a pot of soup for his ailing wife."
