Sirhan Sirhan calls moratorium on hunger strike at San Quentin
Sirhan B Sirhan vows a 30 day pause on his hunger strike after tearful visit with his mother Mary Sirhan in which he warned of possible suicide if isolation at San Quentin remains. Attorney Luke McKissack said Sirhan may begin eating for 30 days but would die by his own hand if conditions do not relax. Local officials report the condemned slayer has minimal contact with others and may be force fed if health fails. Burglars stole camera gear valued at 168 dollars from Marion Leland Cook in Pasadena.
