Summary  
The documents detail Sirhan Sirhan’s medical treatment, workers’ compensation claims, and financial transactions linked to his injuries sustained in 1966, alongside testimonies and FBI records connecting him to Robert F. Kennedy’s assassination investigation. Sirhan was treated for eye-related trauma and orbital injuries following a horse incident on September 24, 1966, at Granja Vista Del Rio Ranch in Corona, California. Medical evaluations by Richard Nelson, E. Gordon Kichn, Dr. Nolan, and others between October 1966 and April 1967 found no significant fractures or neurological damage. Workers’ compensation claims were filed with Argonaut Insurance Company and the California Department of Industrial Relations, resulting in a settlement agreement on November 13, 1966, and a final compromise by February 7, 1968. A $1,705 cashier’s check issued by Argonaut Insurance Company was cashed by Sirhan at Crocker-Citizens National Bank in June 1968. FBI FD-302 forms from June 1968 and 1963 include testimonies identifying Sirhan as the RFK assassin, with Robert Louis Prestwood claiming he met Sirian Siran (also referred to as Sol) at horse racing events in 1966 and identified him as the shooter. Howard Rice recalled occasional sightings of Sirihan Bishara Sirhan at pool halls but denied seeing him on June 4, 1966, the date of RFK’s assassination.
