4:38 PM PT — Los Angeles District Lawyer Nathan J. Hochman tells TMZ … “In denying parole for Sirhan Sirhan … Governor Newsom took into consideration his younger age on the time of the crime (24), his lack of any prior arrests or convictions, his tough upbringing within the war-torn Center East, his success in getting faculty levels and interesting in rehabilitation in jail, his threat rating which was the bottom on the size, his age (77 years outdated), his diminished well being, and the period of time in jail (54 years).
He continues … “However these elements, Governor Newsom acknowledged that his lack of full perception into actions and taking full accountability for them overweighed the opposite details to point out that he remained an unreasonable threat of hazard to society. Sirhan Sirhan by no means made up a self-defense protection, by no means suborned or tried to suborn perjury, and by no means lied repeatedly at trial beneath oath.”
He concludes … “In distinction, whereas the Menendez brothers have most of the identical constructive traits of Sirhan Sirhan in favor of parole or resentencing, they’ve by no means accepted accountability for mendacity about their self-defense protection and suborning and making an attempt to suborn perjury regarding their fabrications of tales of their father violently raping Lyle’s girlfriend, their mom making an attempt to poison the household, and their pal supposedly giving them a handgun the day earlier than the murders. Because of this, if Sirhan stays an unreasonable threat of hazard to public security, then so too do the Menendez brothers — who’ve by no means come absolutely clear of their lies in over 30 years — represent an unreasonable threat of hazard to the group.”

What’s extra, Berry says it is irritating to listen to Hochman perpetuate misconceptions about Sirhan’s alleged confession … she says he is maintained innocence for five many years and now Hochman helps a false narrative change into actuality.
She says Sirhan has by no means flat-out admitted he shot RFK … she says he remembers being on the Ambassador Resort in Los Angeles the evening RFK was shot in 1968 and remembers holding the gun and being restrained by folks after he emerged from his blackout … however that is it.
Sirhan’s legal professional says in 2018 a health care provider claimed Sirhan suffered from PTSD from when he was a toddler in war-torn Palestine and, in consequence, his short-term reminiscence was impacted.
Hochman’s arguing Sirhan being denied parole by Governor Gavin Newsom a pair years in the past means the Menendez brothers ought to get the identical therapy … however authorized groups for Erik, Lyle and Sirhan all say it is an apples-to-oranges comparability.
