Sirhan Sirhan's membership application to the Ancient Mystical Order of the Rosy Cross (AMORC) was received June 23, 1966. He indicated he had been a student of metaphysics, psychology, or philosophy for three years and wanted to better himself. However, he failed to pay his monthly dues in April 1967 and was dropped as a member.

In February 1968, Sirhan sent money orders totaling $36, which reinstated him as an active member. He received literature and magazines from the Order, but did not attend meetings. Instead, he participated in correspondence and submitted lessons by mail.

On May 28, 1968, Sirhan attended a meeting of the Akhnaton Chapter in Pasadena, where he signed the guest register and donated $1 to an offering. During the meeting, he volunteered for an experiment regarding touch sensations and attempted to identify objects being touched to his skin.

Sandra Serrano's statement about a girl saying "We shot him" was partially corroborated by Vincent Di Pierro, but subsequent investigation revealed that she had fabricated the entire story. The Los Angeles Police Department broadcast a teletype requesting information for the arrest of a woman in a polka dot dress.

The investigation into the "Girl in the Polka Dot Dress" led to conflicting elements, including sound-level tests conducted at the Ambassador Ballroom using a .22 caliber revolver with ammunition that matched the brand used by Sirhan. The results showed that the sound level was within the range that could be produced by a .22 caliber revolver.

Sirhan's interest in cults and mysticism is evident from his request for two books, "The Secret Doctrine" by Madame Helena P. Blavatsky and another book, after his confinement in the County Jail.
