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)

Nietzsche said it was an error to have the 'courage of one's convictions', instead one should have, '...the courage for an attack on one's convictions!!' Dan Moldea has done that with this book. Put aside his ego, his earlier beliefs, and let the facts lead.

Not many journalists - or many people - have the bravery for this, but this book is evidence they should. We'd have a lot less disinformation.

The narrative 'twist' works because it's honest, and like a good narrative reversal, enriches the text and improves a second reading. That said it's a device that probably shouldn't be imitated.

True crime is a polluted genre, and we need more work with this kind of integrity.

A gem.

This is not an easy book to review. I learned a great deal from it. It is professionally written and researched. The conclusion that Mr. Moldea comes to may very well be correct. The trouble is that there is just no way to know for sure. It almost literally tips on the edge of a razor. Sirhan’s revolver held eight shots. He did not reload. Three bullets went into the body of Mr. Kennedy. One bullet went into each of the bodies of five other bystanders. That makes eight. The math seems quite simple, and you cannot defeat math. If there is an extra bullet, it means that there was more than one shooter, hence a conspiracy. Simple as that.
And yes, there was another unaccounted-for bullet hole. One went through the shoulder pad of Mr. Kennedy’s suit coat and did not enter his body. That makes nine. So, by way of explanation, Mr. Moldea comes up with a scenario that the bullet that passed through the jacket must have been the one that went one on and struck Mr. Shrade, positioned several feet behind Kennedy, in the forehead. It would have been impossible to even come close to lining up Mr. Kennedy’s shoulder and Mr. Schrade’s forehead had Mr. Kennedy not raised up his right arm. NO ONE saw him do such a thing until after the first shot was fired. AND Mr. Moldea says that this happened ON THE FIRST SHOT. Makes no sense.
Further, the coroner on the case said that powder burns on the jacket indicate the bullet hit the jacket from the rear. Again, NO ONE saw Mr. Kennedy react in any way, either by raising his arms or turning to his left until after the first shot was fired. Clearly, Mr. Sirhan was IN FRONT of Mr. Kennedy for the first shot.
It just doesn’t make any sense, and for that reason I must split the difference between a five-star rating for the information imparted by this book and a zero-star rating for the sketchy conclusion that there was only one shooter and Sirhan was that shooter and give it three.
I did write to Mr. Moldea and asked for clarification, thinking that I might be missing something. Sadly, he wrote back with just one simple line. “I stand by what I wrote in the book.” If he, or anyone else reading this review, can come up with a different explanation that would agree with Mr. Moldea’s conclusion, I would dearly love to hear it. I have long believed that the simplest theory is the one that is most likely to be correct. I have also long thought that Mr. Cesar, sometimes accused of being the shooter behind Kennedy, was innocent. I think that based on this book, I might need to re-imagine that.
I went back to the audio recording of the assassination, and with headphones on, carefully listened to the shots. At least twelve, and maybe thirteen. At least to my ears.
Sorry. Far from being a solved mystery . . . the mystery goes on.

2,0 su 5 stelle Seems that the third, 50th Anniversary Edition would be a lot better

It's obvious that the author put a lot of work into writing this book and I respect that. That's why I gave it two stars, instead of one.
The first 27 chapters (216 pages) are intriguing, despite many typos, in this, the third edition. The 28th chapter is quite a letdown and the 29th is almost unreadable because of the author's glaring ego. "I became furious with myself for having nearly been hoodwinked by Sirhan".
I almost stopped reading it at that point, but decided, with only 65 pages left, I might be able to finish it.
I was wrong. After hundreds of pages of minut details, the author decided to wrap it all up in a pretty bow with his own, new theories, without all the details, in just 19 pages, independent of contradictory details earlier in the book.
It's like he had a nervous breakdown during his hoodwink fury and just asked himself, how can I finish this book without any more effort?
My other complaints are already covered in other one, two, and three star reviews.
