LOS ANGELES (AP) — Lawyers representing convicted assassin Sirhan Sirhan argue in new court documents that a bullet was switched in evidence at his trial and new forensic tests show he is innocent of the 1968 killing of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy.

The attorneys are seeking to overturn Sirhan's conviction.

Its pretty amazing how poorly that whole thing was handled.

I mean, you had a guy walk off with the murder weapon claiming he forgot he put it in his pocket till the next morning.

Obviously it was the Tea Party, or perhaps Sarah Palin.

Then who DID kill bobby kennedy? One of LBJ’s henchmen?

A lot of sudden deaths followed in the footsteps of the entire LBJ entourage, but this one, it is entirely the child of the early efforts of the Muslim Brotherhood.

You know, the band of thugs that are trying to create the new World Caliphate from Morocco to the Philipines

Several other issues like number of bullet holes in the room vs number fired from the “gun” and 2 people (one in polka dot dress) exiting down stairs claiming “we got him”.

Starting reading a book back in the 80’s on the JFK Assassination and got about 100 pages into when the blamed it on Reagan. I threw it in the trash about two second later.

IIRC, you’ve got an interesting web link tucked away that relates to this.

“The lawyers say new audio tests on recordings from the assassination night show 13 bullets from multiple guns were fired. They say that’s five more than Sirhan could have fired.”

The LAPD also released a report some years after the assassination that said at least ten bullets had been fired (two more than Sirhan could have fired.)

We all heard about the John F. Kennedy assination and the “magic bullet.” With the Robert F. Kennedy assination we are learning about mystery bullets. Perhaps the girl in the polka-dotted dress and the man who was seen running away also provided a few of those bullets in that Ambassador Hotel pantry.

Which is all irrelevant. See, RFK was killed at the Ambassador hotel in Hollywood and *everyone* knows that in Hollywood guns always fire thousands more bullets than they do anywhere else.

Let’s just ask Rosey Grier. He had the the gun and Sirhan in his arms until the police arrived.

“or perhaps Sarah Palin.”

Was Sarah old enough to use a pen, or did she put the X on
the map with a crayon?

Bobby Kennedy was a huge Joe McCarthy fan (John also), He even picked Joe to be his daughters Godfather. Any commie would have a motive.

“Get the gun, Rafer, get the gun!”

With how many bullets was RFK hit?
