Lisa Pease on the RFK case: The Grand Illusion

[James Lewis]

Actually, Pease makes a case for both, as she sheds light on the connections that members of Sirhan's defense team, particularly Grant Cooper and Al Wirin, a notorious Warren Commission apologist, had with the U.S. government. She also raises serious questions about the defense team's investigators, particularly Michael McCowan, who had a shadowy past as an ex-LAPD officer and private investigator. Interesting reading, and the most complete argument yet for RFK's death being a conspiracy that involved the LAPD and elements of the government/CIA.

So what are you guys saying, the defence was in on the coverup? Or they were just criminally incompetent?

Personally, I think this is just another case of everyone being so hypnotized by the media that they couldn't even imagine the possibility that anyone else was the murderer. Charles Fort spent 4 volumes describing how difficult it is to think outside of the collective paradigm. He pointed out that someone as talented as Lavoisier couldn't even imagine that rocks could actually fall from the sky.
