New evidence challenges official picture of Kennedy shooting
The official record states that senator Robert F Kennedy, like his brother before him, was killed by a crazed lone gunman. But the assassination of a man who seemed to embody so much hope for a bitterly divided country embroiled in an unpopular war still troubles this nation.
Little about the official explanation of the events at the Ambassador Hotel on June 5 1968 makes sense. Now a new forensic analysis of the only audio recording of the fatal shots has given new weight to a controversial theory that there were in fact two shooters, and that the man convicted of Kennedy’s killing – Sirhan Sirhan – did not fire the fatal shots.</em>
Be nice if we could get the definitive answer to at least one of murder mysteries, even if it is 40 years late.
