doubts about (however) the complicity Sirhans

whether Sirhanthe act actually alone implemented and/or. whether it at all as a murderer Robert F. Kennedys to be applicable can, already early by eye-witnesses of the events in doubts was pulled. The closer circumstances of the act and many inconsistencies with the police determinationsit feeds to today the suspicion that Kennedy a Komplott fell to the victim. Thus resulted in the findings of the official Leichenbeschauers of LA County, Dr. Thomas Noguchi, no agreement of the firing wounds in Kennedys body with the position, from the Sirhan on thatSenator had aimed. Besides at the scene more Patronenhülsen were found, than Sirhans weapon could hold. Second contactors must have been therefore also in the play, which would fulfill the facts of the conspiracy.

Due to indications and searches for many years, among other things itslawyer of many years Lawrence Teeter (56; † 31. June 2005), maintains Sirhan today under involuntary Hypnose at Kennedy to have shot - as more consciousness-manipulated, a “remote controlled killer” - and therefore to be actually innocent. The shot wounds, which caused Kennedys death, could besides,in accordance with the findings of the Leichenbeschauers, not its - Sirhans - weapon to be assigned.

During its lifetimes Teeter fought in vain for a resumption of the procedure against its mandator. It is also at the end of of 2005 still with the highest high court of state of California pending.
