New evidence questions Sirhan Sirhan's Kennedy murder role
Former Rep Allard Lowenstein urged Los Angeles to reopen the Kennedy case, claiming new evidence shows Sirhan did not fire the fatal shot. He cited trajectory data, eight bullets in Sirhan's gun, and eyewitnesses stating Sirhan was two feet away, while autopsy suggested a point-blank shot.

Mardian defense hinges on whether he made a call
In a Watergate trial, Robert C. Mardian argues his guilt or innocence depends on whether he placed a telephone call and when. Prosecutors allege he conspired to obstruct justice with John Mitchell and others on June 17, 1972, after five men were arrested for bugging the Watergate office. Evidence recounts calls to Liddy and Kleindienst amid disputed timings, with Liddy refusing to testify and Judge Sirica guiding a potentially rapid close to the defense's case.
