Robert Kennedy's Assassin Faces Parole Board
SKY News ^ | February 10, 2016

Posted on 02/10/2016 1:29:25 PM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

The man who fatally shot presidential candidate Robert Kennedy nearly half a century ago faces a parole board in California.

Sirhan Sirhan, 71, will have his 15th such hearing at the Richard J Donovan Correctional Facility near San Diego on Wednesday.

The Palestinian-born Sirhan is serving a life sentence for opening fire on the political scion at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles on 5 June 1968.

He has denied having any recollection of the killing, but has also said he targeted Kennedy because of his support for Israel.

Sirhan was last denied parole in 2011, when the board ruled he had not shown sufficient remorse.

They let Hinkley wander about. Seems only fair to let this one out too.

The Kennedy family is a public cancer... nevertheless, this scumbag should never see the light of day.

Last time I saw a picture of him he looked old and fat. He’ll never get out. Eventually, he’ll end up in the prison nursing home unit, and die there.

:: The Palestinian-born Sirhan Sirhan ::

71 years ago (1944), there was a place known as “Palestine”?
Weird...

“They let Hinkley wander about. Seems only fair to let this one out too.”

Big difference: Hinkley shot a REPUBLICAN.

Yep.

Robert was running for president.

Dirham Sirhan corrupted that process and stole from every U. S. Citizen the right to buy in or reject Kennedy.

Can’t undo his crime. Can’t undo his punishment.

Yep. Nepotism cubed.

I see it as an attack on the Post of Attorney General, not on a Kennedy.

Indeed. Sad to say but, the death of RFK was a good thing for America.

I don’t think RFK was a good man or good for the country, but he was a victim of a Palestinian terrorist.

Give him a modicum of respect, please.

He was raised Christian and at the time of the assassination was a Rosicrucian.
