Just after midnight on June 5, 1968, Senator Robert F. Kennedy (RFK) was shot while moving through the pantry of the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles. Just moments before it was predicted that he had secured the California primary which propelled him into second place behind Hubert Humphrey for the Democratic Presidential nomination.
The official conclusion offered by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) was that RFK was shot from in front by one deranged man named Sirhan Bishara Sirhan. We were told that Sirhan used a .22 pistol to do the deed and that he had been practicing with the pistol leading up to the shooting. The best evidence in any case is the body. In terms of shootings the key evidence is the wounds found on the body as they explain the direction and the number of shots fired. This post is going to examine this very important issue to see if the LAPD told us the correct conclusion or not.
When discussing the body the legal authority is the medical examiner if an autopsy had been performed. In the RFK case there was a medico-legal autopsy performed, therefore, we can ascertain with certainty the number of shots and the direction of the shots when they were fired. The medical examiner for the RFK case was Dr. Thomas Noguchi who was the M.E. for Los Angeles County. The autopsy was performed a little after 3:00 a.m. on June 6, 1968, and lasted until about 9:15 a.m. (RFK LAPD Microfilm 96, Transcripts of Grand Jury Testimony, p. 16.)
Dr. Noguchi was asked for the cause of death. Here is is answer.

Q. ...Doctor, as a result of your examination, did you come to an opinion as to the cause of the death of Senator Kennedy?
A. Yes.
Q. And would you state your opinion, please?
A. The cause of death was a gunshot wound of the right mastoid, penetrating the brain.(Ibid., p. 17)

If we examine where the right mastoid is located, we will see that a shot from the front, where Sirhan was always standing, is highly unlikely.
healthfixit.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Location-of-Mastoid-Process-picture.jpg
As we can see from the picture, the right mastoid is in a location that only could be impacted from BEHIND. Even if we agree that RFK turned his head to his left so that a frontal bullet could hit the right mastoid, there is NO way that such a shot would travel UPWARD and penetrate RFK's brain. The most likely course for it would have been for it to traverse through the jaw/mouth and exit out the other side of his face/head. Only IF Sirhan was crouched down and put the gun under RFK's jaw could it have traveled upward towards the brain. This too is highly unlikely.
Thus, we are left with a shot from BEHIND. Sirhan was never behind RFK at any time as numerous witnesses said as much. This means that someone else fired the fatal shot that would eventually kill RFK. The next wound offers more support for this conclusion too.
Q. And in your examination, Doctor, did you determine if there was more than one wound on the body of the Senator?
A. Yes.
Q. And will you tell us how many wounds there were?
A. A total of three gunshot wounds, sir.
Q. Do you mean caused by three separate bullets, Doctor?
A. Yes.
Q. And would you describe the location of the two, other than the one in the head?
A. ...Gunshot Wound 2 (the head wound is number one) was found in the back of the right armpit, known as the axilla; and Gunshot Wound 2 (he meant 3) was also found very close, approximately -- it's about half an inch below Gunshot Wound Number 2. (Ibid., pp. 17-18)

Again, we see that the wounds are in the BACK of RFK's body. I know, I can hear the defenders of all official narratives saying, "But they could be exit wounds." And they could be, highly unlikely, but they could be. It is a good thing that Dr. Noguchi was able to tell us which direction they traveled in so that we can clear this up.

Q. Now, as to the characteristics of Gunshot Wound Number 2, could you tell us, please, what characteristics did that gun wound have? What was it; how did the bullet traverse in the body, if it did?
A. Yes, sir. Referring to Gunshot Wound Number 2, the entrance was found, as I mentioned, in the right anxilla, and it penetrated the subcutaneous tissue and muscle structure from right to left direction, and UPWARD, and BACK to FRONT direction.
And the exit wound was found, [in] the front of the right shoulder. (Ibid., p.19)

This wound was tracked unlike what we saw in the autopsy of President John F. Kennedy (JFK), and it clearly was moving back to front as the head shot was. This again confirms that RFK was shot from BEHIND. Sirhan was NOT behind RFK at any time during the shooting sequence. The third wound will again show the same thing.

Q. Referring you now, Doctor, to Gunshot Wound Number 3, that entrance wound was, as you told us, within half an inch of entrance wound Number 2?
A. Yes.
Q. Would you describe what happened to that bullet in the body?
A. The Gunshot Wound Number 3 track was traced and it indicated the direction to be from the right to left and almost parallel to the wound, to the Gunshot Wound Number 2 pathway.
However, the wound track did not penetrate or did not penetrate the chest cavity but the bullet continued to travel the muscle structure of the back and the bullet was found lodged in the area called the sixth cervical vertebra and slightly to the right.
Q. I take it then there was no exit wound for bullet wound Number 3?
A. No, sir.
Q. Did you in fact recover the bullet from the location you just told us about?
A. Yes. (Ibid., pp. 20-21)

This proves that shot number 3 was fired from BEHIND as it lodged in the neck and had NO exit wound. It could not have originated from the front as there was NO wound to the throat area. This means that the three shots that actually hit RFK all came from BEHIND! How could Sirhan miss so badly at such close range IF he was awake and actually trying to hit RFK? It is impossible. Therefore, he was just a decoy, but he most likely wounded others when he blindly fired the contents of his gun into the pantry. The issue with this is that he is NOT in jail for wounding others. He is in jail for killing RFK when he clearly could NOT have done this.
Dr. Noguchi then describes what he did with the bullet that he removed from RFK's neck. He stated that he initialed, "T.N.", and he placed the last two numbers of the case "31" on it so it could be identified later on. (Ibid., p. 22) He is then asked who he gave it to and he confirms that it was Bill Jordan of the LAPD. (Ibid., p. 23) How nice would this have been to see in the JFK case? Constantly evidence was allegedly handed off and NO one ever knew who they gave it to! We even see a time for the handoff -- 8:49 a.m. on June 6, 1968.
Dr. Noguchi confirmed that wounds 2 and 3 were not fatal if he received proper medical treatment, and of course he would have. The head wound behind his right ear was most certainly the reason for his death and there is NO way that Sirhan could have fired that shot. RFK suffered massive brain damage on the right side of his head and this caused a lot of swelling. (Ibid., p. 26) Further proof that Sirhan did NOT fire the death shot is stated here by Dr. Noguchi. (Dr. Noguchi deserves a lot of credit for stating the truth and not buckling to the pressure that the doctors in the JFK case did. He is a true patriot.)
Q. Doctor, from the tattooing that you described on the edge of the ear as to bullet Wound Number 1, do you have any opinion as to what might have been the distance from which that bullet was fired?
A. Yes, I do have an opinion, sir.
Q. And what is your opinion, Doctor?
A. (Disclaimer about not having been able to test the alleged murder weapon is given.) ...However, the position of the tattooing and the powder on the edge of the right ear that [the] gunshot wound was inflicted, and I would say that the muzzle distance was a -- very, very close.
Q. Do you believe this was a contact wound, that is, the muzzle was actually up against the body of Senator Kennedy?
A. ...Allowing a variation, I don't think it will be more than two or three inches from the edge of the right ear.(Ibid., pp. 27-28)

The fatal bullet came from BEHIND and was no more than THREE INCHES from RFK's skull when it was fired. Neither of these things allowed for Sirhan as he was always in front of RFK and he was at least two feet (arm extended with gun) to three feet from him. Clearly, Sirhan was not the assassin of RFK.
Dr. Noguchi even tells us that one of the prosectors of JFK arrived for the autopsy of RFK -- Colonel Pierre Finck. What a coincidence, huh? Finck was a forensic pathologist so he was very capable, but so was Noguchi. My surprise is because there are many forensic pathologists in the country so why Finck? (Ibid., p. 29)
The most likely suspect in the shooting of RFK was security guard Thane Eugene Cesar. He was a last minute replacement and he was carrying a .22 pistol also. Furthermore, witness Don Schulman said that he saw "an arm with a gun lunging towards Senator Kennedy" and that after the shooting he saw a guard, he presumed it was Cesar, with his gun out and it was pointing to the floor. (LA Grand Jury Exhibits, p. 98).
www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=99873#relPageId=98&search=thane_eugene%20cesar
Photographs of the incident show that Cesar was the guard close to RFK on his right side during his walk into the pantry. IF it wasn't him, then he certainly didn't try to prevent the person who did fire the three shots into RFK from doing so. Either way, he is guilty.
There are quite a few other things that show Sirhan was not the shooter that killed RFK and we will cover them over time. There are some good books out there on the topic, but as always, be careful as some may mislead you. Follow the evidence and research it yourself so you won't be misled. That is why I include links to the evidence in all of my posts.
The journey continues.
