The comments of mentally deranged RFK Jr, the noted antivaxxer and his drug addict brother Douglas not withstanding, the other siblings' statement written by Rory Kennedy.

As children of Robert F. Kennedy, we are devastated that the man who murdered our father has been recommended for parole. Our father's death is a very difficult matter for us to discuss publicly and for the past many decades we have declined to engage directly in the parole process.
Given today's unexpected recommendation by the Califomia parole board after 15 previous decisions to deny release, we feel compelled to make our position clear. We adamantly oppose the parole and release of Sirhan Sithan and are shocked by a ruling that we believe ignores the standards for parole of a confessed, first-degree murderer in the state of California.
Our father's death impacted our family in ways that can never adequately be articulated and today's decision by a two-member parole board has inflicted enormous additional pain. But beyond just us, six of Robert Kennedy's nine surviving children, Sithan Sirhan committed a crime against our nation and its people. He took our father from our family and he took him from America
We are in disbelief that this man would be recommended for release. We urge the Parole Board staff, the full Board, and ultimately, Governor Newsom, to reverse this initial recommendation. It is a recommendation we intend to challenge every step of the way, and we hope that those who also hold the memory of our father in their hearts will stand with us.

Notwithstanding other considerations, he's either deemed eligible for recommendation of parole or he isn't.

I've been to their compound on Cape Cod. Nice place. Saw it from the bay as well as the street (better view from the bay). The Kennedy Era came to an end along with Truman's Century and Sirhan is old. Probably not going to get so involved in social matters. On to more modern outrages.

Bullshit. He should never see the light of day.

I hope he gets brain cancer today.

Wow, that sucks. I think Sirhan Sirhan should never be allowed out in the free world again.

How would we know for sure that he would not kill again and then forget what he did?

@DenoPenno He probably wouldn't. But he shouldn't be rewarded for living to a ripe old age. Bobby did not get that opportunity, because of him.
