Sirhan Sirhan Denied Parole for 13th Time
(San Francisco, California) Palestinian immigrant, Sirhan Sirhan, was sentenced to death for fatally shooting Senator Robert Kennedy in the kitchen of the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles in 1968. The sentence was later commuted to life in prison with the possibility of parole. Yesterday, Sirhan Sirhan saw parole denied for the 13th time.
From Reuters.com:
Sirhan, who turns 62 on Sunday, has been seeking to win his freedom since 1972.
Had the Board of Parole recommended parole, the matter would have gone to California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger for final review. Kennedy was the uncle of Schwarzenegger's wife, Maria Shriver.
"The panel found that he continues to pose an unacceptable risk to public safety and felt that he was not suitable for parole," Tip Kindel, a spokesman for the Board of Prison Terms, said of Sirhan.
So, Sirhan will continue to enjoy cellblock life alongside Charles Manson at Corcoran State Prison. Maybe the two are really, really close, if you catch
my drift. Nevertheless, it would have been a waste of effort to send Sirhan's papers to Schwarzenegger.

Sirhan - sheesh. I remember that dreadful day when Robert Kennedy was shot and simply agree with Improbulus Maximus' statement; but: Shhhhh. No medals - it was a covert op.

Sirhan Sirhan always said he was innocent / couldn't remember committing the crime. Where're Alfre Woodward, Snoop Dog, Tim Robbins, etc when they're needed?

For years Sirhan, a Palestinian Arab Christian for those of you keeping score, proudly admitted he murdered Bobby Kennedy. Many times he's been quoted at length bragging about his crime. But he has recently said he was completely innocent and the victim of CIA brainwashing. My take? He doesn't want to die in prison and will say anything to get out. By the way, he acted alone.

Robert Kennedy didn't deserve to die. The day Sirhan Bashira Sirhan is paroled is the day Hell freezes over.
