Nearly two years ago, a California parole board voted to free Robert F. Kennedy’s assassin, but the decision was later overturned by the governor.
Even if the board rules that Sirhan is suitable for release a second time, his lawyer, Angela Berry, said she doesn't expect it to change Gov. Gavin Newsom's mind because of his “affinity for R.F. Kennedy,” who Newsom has cited as a political hero.Sign up for NBC San Diego newsletters.
Berry has said the 78-year-old man, who has spent more than 54 years in prison, is not a danger to society and should be released. She said that will be the main point she and Sirhan will make to the board, again. “To transform this weight into something positive, I have dedicated my life to self-improvement, the mentoring of others in prison on how to live a peaceful life that revolves around nonviolence,” he said. “By doing this, I ensure that no other person is victimized by my actions again and hopefully make an impact on others to follow.”
