The Assassination of Robert F. Kennedy
Autor William Turner, Jonn Christianen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 oct 2006 – vârsta de la 13 ani
Around
midnight
shortly
after
claiming
victory
in
the
California
presidential
primary
on
June
5,
1968,
Senator
Robert
Kennedy
walked
into
a
deadly
spray
of
gunfire.
Immediately
the
Los
Angeles
Police
Department
concluded
that
the
assassin,
Sirhan
Sirhan,
had
acted
alone.
The
FBI
conducted
a
parallel
inquiry
and
concurred.
And
the
vast
majority
of
the
American
people
accepted
their
opinion.
In this compelling book—mysteriously suppressed on its initial publication—former FBI agent William Turner and investigative reporter Jonn Christian expose convincing evidence that Sirhan did not act alone.
Based on more than ten years of intensive research, Turner and Christian raise serious questions about RFK's murder:
•What was the virtually apolitical Sirhan's motive?
•Why, if Sirhan was standing in front of his victim, were the fatal wounds in the back of Kennedy's head?
•Why were there too many spent bullets (some the wrong size) for Sirhan's gun?
•Did the LAPD discredit witnesses, try to make them alter their stories, and destroy key records?
•Was Sirhan, in fact, a “Manchurian Candidate,” programmed through hypnosis either to kill Kennedy or divert attention while others did the job?
The
Assassination
of
Robert
F.
Kennedymakes
the
case
that
the
murder
of
RFK,
and
the
subsequent
police
and
government
investigations,
bear
all
the
hallmarks
of
the
conspiracy
surrounding
the
assassination
of
John
F.
Kennedy
and
the
resulting
Warren
Commission.
It
is
a
fascinating
and
chilling
reexamination
of
the
tragic
events
that
undoubtedly
changed
the
course
of
American
history.In this compelling book—mysteriously suppressed on its initial publication—former FBI agent William Turner and investigative reporter Jonn Christian expose convincing evidence that Sirhan did not act alone.

of
high-level
political
leaders—including
Robert
