Reynolds: "You know."
Sirhan: "What do you want to know?"
Reynolds: "Did you kill Robert F. Kennedy?"
Sirhan: "No, I did NOT kill Robert F. Kennedy!"
Reynolds: "I know you didn't."
Sirhan: "How do you know?"
Reynolds explained that he studied the details of his case, learned that RFK was killed at point blank range by a bullet to the back of his head.
"The real assassin appears to be Kennedy's 26 year old Ace Security Company bodyguard....Thane Eugene Cesar. At least one eye witness claims to have seen Cesar with a smoking gun in his hand immediately after Kennedy fell to the floor. An audio recording made during the assassination indicates that there were at least 11 shots fired (perhaps more) from possibly three different guns."
"The conclusion is that Kennedy was shot three times from behind with a fourth bullet passing through his suit coat. The fact that you (Sirhan) were standing in front of Kennedy is undisputed and yet according to the coroner's report not one bullet entered Robert F. Kennedy from the front of his body."
Sirhan: "Oh my! I knew this morning when I woke up that God was telling me he had something great in store for me today and this is it! God has sent you to me!....I was beginning to lose hope so you were sent to lift my spirits. Now I can be hopeful again. Thank goodness somebody else knows."
Reynolds: "Have you ever talked to anybody else in prison that knows the truth of your case?"
Sirhan: "Yes. One person, that's all....He was one who drives a truck around and empties the dumpsters....I had a job where I had to take the garbage out of the kitchen....to the dumpster....once in a while he would talk to me. He told me he believed I was innocent."
Reynolds: "Did you talk to this guy often?"
Sirhan: "Actually no. He and I only talked maybe about three times and each time it was only for about five minutes or so."
He explained that he never met anyone in prison, besides him, who knows. He said friends on the outside set up a web site for him - rfkmustdie.com, with information about him, RFK, and whether CIA operatives killed him, framing Sirhan for the crime.
Reynolds: "Do you have an appeal on file right now?"
