Obama has been working in the shadows for years. But this could end all of that.
Because RFK Jr. unveiled a shocking truth about Barack Obama that will drop your jaw.
New Call for Justice in RFK Assassination
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has reignited a decades-old quest for truth by urging the Obama administration to investigate an audio recording that allegedly captured the 1968 assassination of his father.
The recording, Kennedy Jr. claims, contains evidence of more gunshots than the convicted assassin’s weapon could have fired. This plea was detailed in a September 2012 letter to then-Attorney General Eric Holder, which surfaced among a vast collection of documents released by the National Archives on Wednesday.
The newly disclosed documents provide a window into the federal probe of Robert F. Kennedy’s tragic death at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles. Kennedy Jr., now a Trump administration official, sought to challenge the official narrative surrounding the June 6, 1968, killing.
His request for “a new investigation” underscores lingering doubts about the circumstances of his father’s murder, a case that has long fueled speculation and debate.
Key Evidence and Allies
Kennedy Jr.’s push for answers was bolstered by Paul Schrade, a former United Auto Workers vice president who was wounded in the attack. “He was standing beside my father when Daddy was killed and Paul was himself wounded by a bullet,” Kennedy Jr. wrote in his letter to Holder, emphasizing Schrade’s personal stake in the case.
Schrade, alongside a team of prominent attorneys, including former U.S. Attorney Rob Bonner, argued that the audio evidence is compelling enough to warrant a fresh investigation. “Paul and his team of nationally prominent attorneys strongly believe this new evidence is conclusive and requires a new investigation. I agree and support his request for a new investigation,” Kennedy Jr. affirmed.
Details of the Disputed Audio
The audio in question, recorded by a journalist at the scene, is central to Schrade’s claims. He contends it reveals “two gunmen fired at least 13 shots from two different .22 caliber revolvers and from opposing directions.”
This stands in contrast to the official account, which holds that Sirhan Sirhan, the convicted assassin, acted alone using an eight-shot .22 caliber Iver Johnson revolver. Schrade insists Sirhan had no opportunity to reload during the chaotic incident, raising questions about the possibility of a second shooter.
The released records show that Kennedy Jr.’s request prompted action from the FBI’s Los Angeles Field Office, which launched an inquiry into the audio evidence. The tape was sent to the FBI’s Digital Evidence Laboratory in Quantico, Virginia, for detailed analysis. However, the results were inconclusive.
“The designated area recorded on specimen Q1 was of insufficient quality to definitively classify the impulse events as gunshots,” the FBI’s May 13, 2013, report noted. The report further stated that investigators could not “confirm the number of gunshots or determine the identification of specific weapon(s)” based on the recording.
Broader Context of Declassification
The release of these documents stems from President Trump’s Jan. 23 executive order, which called for the declassification of records related to the assassinations of Robert F. Kennedy, President John F. Kennedy, and Martin Luther King Jr.
This move has reignited public interest in these pivotal moments in American history, offering researchers and advocates new material to explore. For Kennedy Jr. and Schrade, the files represent a chance to revisit a case that has haunted their lives and the nation’s conscience for over half a century.
