Dear Sir: We recently read an article in the San Diego Union stating that "a three-cell suite 18 being built for Sirhan. at a state medical facility_ We were shocked disgusted, and angered by this news _ Since this particulaz crime was comitted "beyond the shadow of a doubt" before nuerous witnesses panishment should have been swift and sure and if the laws were upheld (those of the Constitution as our forefathers wrote them) it shouldn t have taken longer than 24 hours for the sentence to be carried out. We are becoming ashaned of a country that has a judicial system that would allow the farce of a trial such as Sirhan' $ to be carried out let alone prepare luxurious quarters for him. Something is drastically wrong with a system where justice is not the prime concern, but where the defense is a llowed to "win at any cost" and at the taxpayer 's expense. We count it a privilege to live in this country we think it necessary to pay taxes for this privilege, and after having been a_ member of the Navy for 23 years (my husband recently retired) we strongly protest the molly-coddling Of criminals whiie we pay for it. We respectfully request that the laws in this country be reviewed with the thought that the decent people of this land be protected and the ones who would destroy us and the criminals be assured of swift and sure shment_ Respectfully yours YE 2 1 ZL 37 APR 10 1969 MRS _ VERXA J CRAVENS VIMWa 61 WWli 0AT Diego 7 , puni= ================================================== Page 21 ================================================== PL MkS VERLA J.

If all this is true then I am you are supervisor in ios Angeles County rather than Brown Cgunty Minnesota. While we are being conditioned to accept large eSpenditures this trial cost is a gross mishandling of the taxpayers money It oil1 take 2,500 families,working hard,paying an average of S4oo a year in taxes to your county,to Pay for this trial These are the people who the law, work hard, save for their kids and for their old age and Pay their outrageous taxes These are the people you should be thinking about These are the victims of prima donna attorneys and "'I-don t-care 11 public officials will the trial cost $1,000 000 . 00 ?What will the fee for the defense attorney be ? What wil the Psychiatrists fees be ? Does the D get extra fees for a case like this and how much ? Sirhan admited [illing Senator Kennedy,s0 what 19 the fuss ? He is a foreigner no matter what his papers say, and a foregner from a nation of pedple knom for violentand uncontrolled teppess _ The United States in typical childish and big hearted style, opened the doors to too many imigrants from too many countries . This is one result We not only are allowing &ll kiddsand colors of immigrants we IMPORTED millions of Cubans among who we will find some sabateurs and perhaps assasins When these people come overhere and assassinate our repepected officials and then we spend $1,000,000. 00 defending them there is some 'thing radically wrong with uS and our system. The Trial Ls worth about S10,000 . 00 and nomore Who is it that is responsible for this Million dallar trial? Can the defense it out to any amount? What 1f they run it up to S10 Million dollars ? I8 there no limit? T me it is a Prima donna , gett the spotlight and milking the taxBayer for al1 he can _ I would hope there 18 some public wa tchdog who wili sue the ones responsible for thfs waste of taxpayers money .
