On June 5th, 1968, at L.A.'s Ambassador Hotel, Robert F. Kennedy
celebrated his victory in the California Democratic primary with a
rousing victory speech anticipating a successful run for the
presidency. Moments later, gunshots shattered that dream. The
police quickly apprehended Sirhan Sirhan, who the world believed
had single-handedly masterminded the shooting. But in Who Killed
Bobby? Shane O'Sullivan makes a stunning case that will
fundamentally alter the way the public views Bobby Kennedy's death.
After an autopsy, LA County Coroner Thomas Noguchi concluded that
the deadly shots had been fired from an inch behind Kennedy's right
ear, but not a single witness placed Sirhan this close; most placed
his gun several feet away, and in front of the senator. Moreover,
Vincent Di Pierro, along with several other witnesses, saw Sirhan
with a girl in a polka-dot dress in the pantry, exclaiming, "We
shot him. We shot him." O'Sullivan presents new interviews with key
witnesses the LAPD browbeat into changing their stories. He also
presents a damning case against Sirhan's psychological state.
Sirhan repeatedly scrawled "RFK Must Die" in his notebook and
recreated the same kind of automatic writing when later hypnotized
by his defense team. O'Sullivan cites psychiatric evidence that
Sirhan was an extremely susceptible hypnotic subject, whose
behavior on the night of the shooting fit the profile of a
programmed assassin. Was Sirhan programmed to be a decoy for the
real killer?
