Summary  
The document contains FBI records and interview transcripts detailing investigations into Robert F. Kennedy’s assassination and associated individuals. Gary White, interviewed in Detroit, claimed no knowledge of RFK’s assassination despite being at the Ambassador Hotel on June 4, 1968. Sirihan Strihan (also spelled SIRIHAN or SIRIAN) was noted as having shot at a San Gabriel Valley Gun Club range on June 4, 1968, and Michael Anthony Saccoman identified him at Fish Canyon Firing Range in 1966 with possession of a .22 caliber pistol. Donald Wickson, an extra banquet waiter at the Ambassador Hotel (using alias Donald David Evangelista), had prior arrests, vehicle thefts, and connections to stolen vehicles. Clifford E. Kerns, a tour director, reported no knowledge of RFK’s assassination during his May 1968 trip to Israel. John Fahey in Los Angeles described being followed by an individual resembling Munir Stirhan after meeting a woman at the Ambassador Hotel on June 4, 1968. Fernando Faura is noted as allegedly influencing Fahey’s statements. Redacted social security numbers and administrative notes about FBI protocols are included.  

John’s account involves an ID process with a composite image of a “girl” linked to RFK, influenced by Officer Fernando Paura and Dr. Lascola through hypnosis and polygraph tests. Subrina Dubble, a 17-year-old, contacted the FBI in October 1968 claiming information about RFK’s assassination via phone calls. Khalid Iqbal, a Jordanian seen at the Ambassador Hotel with RFK prior to his death, was investigated for potential involvement. James Files, another 17-year-old, admitted making false calls impersonating Subrina Dubble.
