Book Reviews of Who Killed Bobby?: The Unsolved Murder of Robert F. Kennedy

Book Review: Thin. Very thin.
Summary: 3 Stars

I'm a huge fan of RFK and I am ready to be convinced that there was more to his murder than one crazed lonely man. I expected this book to provide facts to support a conspiracy theory, but with it's weak reasoning, logical flaws, repetition, poor writing, and laughable straw-grabbing, I am now convinced that Sirhan acted alone for his own demented reasons. A girl in a polka dot dress runs out yelling "We did it!"?? Yeah, all great conspiracies end with a public announcement to strangers, by the conspirators. You have Sirhan writing "It is my obsession" to kill RFK, days prior to the assassination. Sure he claims not to remember the killing - and his claim of no memory is accepted wholesale by the author here. It is a premise the author relies upon and focuses on toward the end (paying lip service to, but quickly dismissing, the thought that Sirhan is faking.) Despite his efforts to raise doubts in favor of a conspiracy, or at least a "second gun," this author has shown that such concepts are unsupported in this instance. Sirhan was a lone gunman.
