If you don't read the article you won't know what his criticisms are of the earlier investigation. pnwmom May 2018 #59

The article is not clear on at least one point for me AndJusticeForSome May 2018 #61

This other article from 10 years ago says 14 bullets were found. pnwmom May 2018 #65

So, they have possession of more than 8 bullets? AndJusticeForSome May 2018 #93

No. They haven't explained it. That's why there are questions. pnwmom May 2018 #108

Well, I did read the article [edit: before my initial response, that is], and it reads like RockRaven May 2018 #68

Paul Schrade (also shot) was not and is not a kook. I find him compelling hlthe2b May 2018 #5

He's saying there was a second shooter. In that crowded space, I think it's possible. n/t pnwmom May 2018 #24

RFK Jr. has been a great activist & environmentalist womanofthehills May 2018 #102

I Agree With Him colsohlibgal May 2018 #8

If it was such a mob scene, how does anyone know Sirhan didn't get that close EffieBlack May 2018 #14

Not all the evidence points at Sirhan Sirhan. Some points away from him. pnwmom May 2018 #25

Also, both RFK Jr. & Schrade do not believe Sirhan killed Kennedy after meeting Sirhan in person womanofthehills May 2018 #107

Not true. H2O Man May 2018 #55

Your reference to Bugliosi isn't accurate EffieBlack May 2018 #69

That's inaccurate. H2O Man May 2018 #109

Regardless what Bugliosi said during the trial, the court did NOT find there was a conspiracy EffieBlack May 2018 #111

Two important things: H2O Man May 2018 #120

One thing EffieBlack May 2018 #121

Thank you! H2O Man May 2018 #122

Pardon my interjection, but he certainly is (a class act)... I only know Bugliosi's work hlthe2b May 2018 #123

Interesting read MiniMe May 2018 #10

It has come up... Particularly the ballistics and the failure to keep some of the evidence hlthe2b May 2018 #11

It has -- and more. Like audio recordings, for example. But it keeps getting dismissed, pnwmom May 2018 #66

The question is if there was a 2nd shooter as well. pnwmom May 2018 #38

Right, but he was shooting from in front of RFK, and the autopsy says pnwmom May 2018 #26

This isn't a conspiracy theory, just an MSM report about what a kooky Dr Hobbitstein May 2018 #15

Not only did Sirhan confess, not only did he have notebooks talking about it grantcart May 2018 #16

This has nothing to do with Sirhan's guilt--clearly established, but a second shooter. n/t hlthe2b May 2018 #18

Thanks for Posting the Article. There is a lot of Evidence LarryNM May 2018 #39

thank you for that... hlthe2b May 2018 #41

It is a WAPO article... hlthe2b May 2018 #48

We don't know what ALL the other Kennedy's think today, in light of evidence pnwmom May 2018 #57

That seems to be a strong selling point for Cha May 2018 #88

Yes -- I keep looking for an explanation for that, and all I find are people dismissing it pnwmom May 2018 #89

Not true. One of the men who was shot that day is the biggest proponent of the 2nd shooter theory pnwmom May 2018 #58

The revisionists think there was a conspiracy or a coverup, claim struggle4progress May 2018 #19

Wasn't there an effort to prevent those diaries being presented as evidence? madamesilverspurs May 2018 #37

Try as you might with facts, you still can't convince some people. tonyt53 May 2018 #40

Not true. One of the men who was shot is convinced there was a second shooter. pnwmom May 2018 #60

There is ZERO evidence of a second shooter. There are a gazillion conspiracy theories though. tonyt53 May 2018 #101

No, they recovered 13-14 bullets in the bodies or in the site pnwmom May 2018 #104

"The Guardian" is your source of info??? There was no such document. tonyt53 May 2018 #112

What do you mean by "there was no such document"? And the Guardian is not a tabloid. pnwmom May 2018 #113

There's no conspiracy theory too whacky, either. kcr May 2018 #75

There was lots of extremely questionable evidence Kentonio May 2018 #86

They caught the guy at the time...give me a break from all these conspiracy theories. Demsrule86 May 2018 #20

No one is saying Sirhan wasn't guilty. The issue is if there was a second shooter. READ the article hlthe2b May 2018 #21

It doesn't matter to me either. Demsrule86 May 2018 #22

There is autopsy evidence that would support a second shooter theory. pnwmom May 2018 #27

Could RFK simply have turned his head, which would make shots from front appear to be from behind? Liberty Belle May 2018 #33

Sometimes conspiracies actually happened. We are seeing that right now pnwmom May 2018 #36

And sometimes they don't EffieBlack May 2018 #70

I haven't read that anywhere. And I know that one of the men who was shot pnwmom May 2018 #72

Plenty more other people who were also there - and who weren't distracted by being shot - EffieBlack May 2018 #79

The article does not say Sirhan was not guilty. You missed the point or did not read the article hlthe2b May 2018 #50

There is actually some substantial evidence for the 2nd shooter theory, which is what pnwmom May 2018 #56
