This Day in History: , Bobby Kennedy Is Assassinated.
June 5, 1969.
Senator Kennedy was shot at
the Ambassador Hotel in LA,
after making a brief victory
speech to a crowd of supporters.
Considered by many to be the
only hope in unifying a deeply divided nation,
he had just won the California presidential primary.
22-year-old Sirhan Sirhan
fired several rounds at Kennedy
at close range as he was exiting
the hotel through the kitchen.
Kennedy was pronounced dead the next day.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. had been
gunned down just months earlier.
Sirhan Sirhan was sentenced to death.
He spent the rest of his life in prison
after California outlawed the death penalty.
Richard Nixon was elected to his
first term as President of the United States
later that year
