Sirhan has been in prison since 1969 and has been denied parole maybe17 times now. He is 78.
I have zero sympathy for this assassin, this murderer. I still doubt that we know the whole story about why he did it. I believe he changed the direction of this country by killing Bobby Kennedy. I was watching Kennedy speak from a Los Angeles hotel on TV, saw him shot. That made it possible for Nixon to be elected. He's the one who dodged being thrown out by resigning. "I am not a crook," he said.
Sirhan Sirhan does not deserve to ever be released from prison.

I remember seeing all that too. No, he doesn't deserve to be released. Nixon was one of those that thought he was something special. Like putz does now.

We may never would have been "blessed" with Reagan or even Trump, I like to think.

I hate to think that, but it goes all the way back to JFK's assassination in 1963.

I do believe in redemption, and I am not sure what Sirhan has done with his time in prison, i ngeneral though you do the crime, you should do the time.

There can be no redemption for an assassin as far as I see.

Who can forget those days A lot was being discussed on the Kennedys
I do not think anyone gets parole for this kind of crime.

@JamesHxstatic I think he is better off in the prison. Who will care for him if he is let out?

Sometimes if a murderer is old & sick they let him/her out.

It’s funny…people like him and John Lennon’s murderer aren’t even considered for parole. They’re given the formality of a hearing, but we all know the outcome.
And someone who kills the Bobby Kennedy or John Lennon of someone’s family gets out of prison just because that family “superstar” wasn’t a celebrity.

That's a good point, but I do wonder how many convicted of premeditated murder get out?

No, I'm sure he regrets throwing his life away, but he did it.

Maybe not, but he is not deserving of any mercy.
