Summary  
The documents consist of multiple FBI memoranda and interview records dated September 16, 1968, detailing the investigation into the assassination of Senator Robert F. Kennedy (RFK) at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles on June 5 or 6, 1968. The perpetrator is identified as Sirihan or Stirhan, who used a .22 caliber revolver to kill RFK in the kitchen area near the Embassy Ballroom following a victory rally. The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) requested FBI assistance to interview hotel guests for information about potential conspiracies, knowledge of Stirhan, or sightings of him on the night of the assassination. All gathered information was compiled into FD-302/303 forms and submitted to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office. Trial dates mentioned in the documents include November 1968 (first memo), November 1963 (second memo), or November 1961 (third memo), which conflict with historical records of the actual trial occurring in April 1969. Each document includes a hotel layout diagram and instructions to submit 22 copies of FD-302/303 forms.
