Sirhan Sirhan Legal professional Says Hochman Has Details Incorrect in Menendez Comparability

4:38 PM PT — Los Angeles District Legal professional Nathan J. Hochman tells TMZ … “In denying parole for Sirhan Sirhan … Governor Newsom took into consideration his younger age on the time of the crime (24), his lack of any prior arrests or convictions, his tough upbringing within the war-torn Center East, his success in getting school levels and fascinating in rehabilitation in jail, his threat rating which was the bottom on the dimensions, his age (77 years outdated), his diminished well being, and the period of time in jail (54 years).

He continues … “However these elements, Governor Newsom acknowledged that his lack of full perception into actions and taking full accountability for them overweighed the opposite information to point out that he remained an unreasonable threat of hazard to society. Sirhan Sirhan by no means made up a self-defense protection, by no means suborned or tried to suborn perjury, and by no means lied repeatedly at trial below oath.”

He concludes … “In distinction, whereas the Menendez brothers have lots of the similar constructive traits of Sirhan Sirhan in favor of parole or resentencing, they’ve by no means accepted accountability for mendacity about their self-defense protection and suborning and trying to suborn perjury regarding their fabrications of tales of their father violently raping Lyle’s girlfriend, their mom making an attempt to poison the household, and their good friend supposedly giving them a handgun the day earlier than the murders. Consequently, if Sirhan stays an unreasonable threat of hazard to public security, then so too do the Menendez brothers — who’ve by no means come absolutely clear of their lies in over 30 years — represent an unreasonable threat of hazard to the group.”

Sirhan Sirhan‘s lawyer is looking out Los Angeles County District Legal professional Nathan Hochman … saying the brand new D.A. is getting some dangerous details about RFK‘s alleged murderer.

Hochman’s been making an attempt to make use of the Sirhan case to maintain the Menendez Brothers behind bars of their bid for freedom … however Sirhan’s lawyer tells us Hochman is confused about some primary information.

Angela Berry, who represents Sirhan, tells TMZ … Hochman is pushing a standard misperception about Sirhan when he says Sirhan admitted to the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy after which later claimed his innocence, and he or she says Hochman is making an unfair comparability to Erik and Lyle.

She says Sirhan has by no means flat-out admitted he shot RFK … she says he remembers being on the Ambassador Resort in Los Angeles the evening RFK was shot in 1968 and remembers holding the gun and being restrained by individuals after he emerged from his blackout … however that is it.

Sirhan’s lawyer says in 2018 a physician claimed Sirhan suffered from PTSD from when he was a toddler in war-torn Palestine and, because of this, his short-term reminiscence was impacted.

Hochman’s arguing Sirhan being denied parole by Governor Gavin Newsom a pair years in the past means the Menendez brothers ought to get the identical therapy … however authorized groups for Erik, Lyle and Sirhan all say it is an apples-to-oranges comparability.
