SIRHAN IS AN INNOCENT MAN!

SECOND GUNMAN KILLED BOBBY

-

ROBERT F. KENNEDY’S imprisoned assassin is innocent!

That’s the shocking conclusion of Paul H. Schrade — who stood directly behind RFK when shots rang out inside L.A.’s Ambassador Hotel on June 5, 1968 — and was hit with bullets fired by Sirhan B. Sirhan!

Sirhan has continued to insist he was framed for the White House hopeful’s murder — and now his story is supported by one of Kennedy’s closest allies!

Schrade, a United Auto Workers union officer and RFK’s labor liaison, was inches from Kennedy and told The National ENQUIRER he’s convinced the framed gunman was a patsy! Kennedy was struck three times — once behind his ear, a second time in the back and again with a bullet that exited his chest and hit the ceiling. But ballistics testing also proved none of the bullets from Sirhan’s gun matched those that struck the fallen New York senator! But a shot from Sirhan’s gun did reach a mark, striking Schrade in the forehead!

“It’s clear based upon the prosecutio­n’s own evidence that Bobby Kennedy was shot three times by a second gunman,” Schrade, 94, told The ENQUIRER. “Sirhan was never in a position to shoot him in the back and they knew that!

“[Prosecutor­s] actually rigged this case against

Sirhan and they neglected to investigat­e the possibilit­y of a second gunmen, even though they knew [Sirhan] didn’t shoot Bobby Kennedy!”

In a letter obtained by The ENQUIRER, Sirhan has broken his silence to declare he’s a political prisoner.

“I have been a prisoner for nearly 50 years, having been wrongly accused of the assassinat­ion of Senator Robert Kennedy,” he wrote. Now Schrade is determined to prove Sirhan’s innocence — and force the government into launching a new investigat­ion to find RFK’s real killer!

He’s one of 60 prominent investigat­ors, authors and celebritie­s who recently establishe­d the American

Truth and Reconcilia­tion Committee.

As The ENQUIRER has reported, the committee has called for the FBI and CIA to release secret files about the assassinat­ions of RFK, his brother President John F. Kennedy and civil rights leaders Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X — and name a blue-ribbon panel to properly investigat­e the murders.

As for RFK’s assassinat­ion, “There had to be two guns,” Schrade said. “There’s plenty of factual and legitimate documented evidence to make this case.”
