Mitchell Attorney General of the United State s Department of Justice Washington, D C Dear General Mitchell: In re: Sirhan B Sirhan Subsequent to the assassination of Senator Robert F Kennedy , the staff of this office, together with the Los Angeles Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, conducted an extensive investigation into the possible existence of & criminal conspiracy in connection with the Senator's death. The conclusion from this inve stigation was and is that there was no con - spiracy and that Sirhan B Sirhan acted alone As might be expected in a case involving nationwide publicity , certain authors are currently attempting to suggest that a conspiracy did in fact exist. Mr . Robert Kaiser , in a book, "RFK Must Die 11 suggests that Sirhan was a "Manchurian Candidate ,"' computerized to assassinate Senator Kennedy. One free lance reporter has advanced a theory that Sirhan was as sisted in the a88a8sination by a right wing security guard on duty at the Ambassador Hotel on the night of the assas sination_ This letter i8 to inform you that this office is aware of these persons and their theories involving a purported conspiracy. The policy of this office is to investigate and evaluate all information sugge a conspiracy. To date the theories advanced by these individuals have neither suggested new evidence nor altered the conclusion heretofore stated_ IDEPARTMENT QF ~Tict '28 SEp 25 1970 1 I SEP 29 /970 RA.O_ OCT 1 1970 CIv, FGIIS DIV. 6, K7c sting Sact ================================================== Page 5 ================================================== Honorable John N_ Mitchell 22 September 22 1970 Should you desire any information from our file s regarding these theories or others which may arise and come to your attention this office will cooperate in every manner possible Sincer Y, EVELLE J_ YOUNGER District Attorney kms cc: Honorable Robert L Meyer, United States Attorney for the Central District of California Honorable Edward M_ Davis Chief of Police , Los Angeles Police Department ================================================== Page 6 ================================================== COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES OFFICE OF THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY 600 HALL OF JUSTicE Los ANGELES, CALIFORNIA 90012 VIA AIR MAIL Honorable John N.

Oct . 9,1970 President Nixon ashington , D.C . Dear Fr. President: It is still quite a while before the presidentiadl campa ign , but I think we should not saddle the people with the cost of providing special guards for tbe presidential canditates. Of course right after Robert Kennedy wa3 assinated there was quite an uproar. But you know Robert Kennedy did have a life guard and it didn't do him any food . And about these North Vietnamese cant some one accidently get one of those bombs we used on Ja pan and use it on them? arn't really people are the y? They are just war mongers .

Dear President Nixon; I am an 8th grade student at Margaret Mace Junior High School in North Wildwood, New Jersey. Today during our History class the discussion came up about Sirhan Sirhan and he 18 given Bpecial privileges Buch a8 an over-sized cell and a color television. I have read in the newspapers that this man has been found guilty of killing Senator Robert F_ Kennedy. There 18 no reason he should these privileges while no one else does . Everyone in my classroom 18 concerned and I am sure that we are not the only ones that wonder he 18 given these special privileges. My class and I would be very grateful if this letter would be answered.
