The late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy’s assassin was granted parole Friday after two of the slain political icon’s sons said they supported his release.
Douglas Kennedy, who was a toddler when his father was gunned down in 1968, said he was moved to tears by Sirhan Sirhan’s remorse during a parole hearing that prosecutors didn’t attend.
“I’m overwhelmed just by being able to view Mr. Sirhan face to face,” he said.
“I think I’ve lived my life both in fear of him and his name in one way or another. And I am grateful today to see him as a human being worthy of compassion and love.”
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has spoken in favor of Sirhan’s release in the past, also wrote in favor of paroling Sirhan.

Maybe we should get him a ticket to DC?
77 years old...in prison aver 40 years...what’s he gonna do?
The timing of this and the cynic in me says that the tolly bahn added this to a long list of conditions.
Die soon, hopefully
Unbelievable. He should have been executed decades ago.
SS. It will be cheaper for the government to have him on the outside.

Suicide bomber? certainly easy enough

Paging Oprah.. got a hot one for booking and I ain’t talking about the son of RFK that supported the parole.
Old age will kill ya faster than any sentence or virus on Death Row.. well, the ones that haven’t been released or will be sooon enough.. unless..
Good for him, probably bought this country 40 years, as we would have lost the Cold War if a Kennedy took power again.
Well I suppose that if he wanted to assassinate someone else he still has enough strength to pull a trigger but odds are he will live out his days as a pampered media darling.
