The Killing of Robert F. Kennedy: An Investigation of Motive, Means, and Opportunity

Dan E Moldea

THE UPDATED 50th ANNIVERSARY EDITION

On June 5, 1968, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, a former U.S. Attorney General, was shot in a kitchen pantry at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles during an election night victory party. His death the following day stunned a nation still recovering from the murder of his brother, President John F. Kennedy, five years earlier in Dallas, which many believed was still an unsolved case.

However, law-enforcement officials insisted that the murder of Senator Kennedy was not another Dallas. This was an open-and-shut case. Senator Kennedy’s assassin, Sirhan Sirhan, who was apprehended and arrested at the scene, had acted alone.

Yet behind the official version of the RFK killing lies a story of shadows, controversies, conflicting testimonies, and missing evidence. Investigative journalist Dan E. Moldea set out to discover the truth. What he found suggested at the very least a botched investigation.

In this compelling and exciting book, filled with plot twists and intrigue, Moldea turns the case inside out, tracking down witnesses and police officers (most of whom had never been interviewed), scrutinizing sworn statements and official files, polygraphing a security guard whom many suspected was the real gunman, and interviewing Sirhan three times in jail. From the welter of evidence and theories, Moldea reveals what he believes happened that fateful night.

Exhaustively researched, brilliantly analyzed, and wonderfully written, The Killing of Robert F. Kennedy definitely closes the door on the mystery of the murder of Robert Kennedy. (W.W. Norton)
