Sirhan Sirhan

Sirhan Sirhan is a "Palestinian" extremist and Jordanian citizen who carried out the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy. It is believed that he carried out the murder because Kennedy strongly supported Israel. He was captured at the scene by Rosey Grier, a well-known NFL player.

After being convicted of the crime in 1969 and initially sentenced to death in the gas chamber, his sentence was commuted in 1972 to life in prison at the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego County, California.
