On Wednesday, California's Board of Parole Hearings denied parole for Sirhan Sirhan, the man convicted of assassinating Senator Robert F. Kennedy in 1968. This was Sirhan's 17th parole suitability hearing, and the board's decision means that he will not be eligible for parole for another three years. The public has reacted to the decision with mixed reactions, with some believing he should remain in prison and others arguing for his release due to his age and the length of his sentence.
