ZitatPaul Schrade, after nearly dying alongside his pal Robert Kennedy 50 years ago, endures as both assassination survivor and skeptic.

Sirhan Sirhan was arrested, convicted and jailed in short order for the murder. Schrade, now 93, has long maintained that authorities prosecuted the wrong man for killing RFK.
Schrade, struck by one of the eight bullets fired by Sirhan, believes there was a second gunman who fired the fatal bullets and escaped in the chaotic aftermath.
