I've already considered that. If someone's relative or coworker had gone to the speech and simply disappeared somebody would have mentioned it. If the 2nd gunman had passed-off his weapon and was tackled and apprehended without any weapon it would clear him. His facial resemblance to Sirhan would be used to claim that an understandable mistake was made. However this man would not clear a paraffin test if he ever got to that stage. Perhaps the good samaritan was convinced staying quiet was in his best interest?

Still though, this fails to completely clear the hurdles of counter-intuitiveness because any identification would eventually be prone to deep research scrutiny.

Not bad.

But "identification" would have been false, verifiable on the scene, and later "lost." Also, "deep research scrutiny" not only was anticipated; it would be welcomed for the cognitive dissonance it could be counted on to stir among the scrutinizers and their audiences.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless.  All you can do is control them or eliminate them.  Innocence is a kind of insanity.
