Yes, there is a pretty well developed and credible literature about the RFK assassination and about Frank Olsen's tragic death. I highly recommend John Marks's well researched book The Search for the Manchurian Candidate. Marks was co-author with former CIA official Victor Marchetti in writing another seminal book titled The CIA and the Cult of Intelligence which aroused concerns and the censors's knife of the CIA. It is the only book to ever have been censored by our government. <br><br>The LA coroner Thomas Noguchi, well known and respected in his profession, was never called to testify at Sirhan's trial because his conclusion clearly made it clear that it was physically impossible for Sirhan to have fired the shots that killed RFK. All the wounds were caused by gunshots from Kennedy's back fired upward at a sharp angle and extremely close range (like about one inch!). The fatal shot to the head left a powder burn, it was fired so close. RFK's hotel-hired body guard, Thane Cesar, was the person most likely to have fired those shots. Sirhan was merely a decoy to distract attention. He apparently never knew what he was taking part in as he was easily hypnotized and manipulatable. <p></p><i></i>
