The Sirhan Parole Hearing
Sirhan’s next parole hearing is on August 16th. His current lawyer, Angela Berry, is asking people to write the parole board. She suggests that rather than focusing on his innocence, the writer should accent his age, his record as a model prisoner, the fact prisons are overcrowded, he is not a threat to anyone at the age of 80, and the vociferous, emotional pleas of some of the next of kin should not override the law. If he is not a danger to society he should be paroled.
Letters should be mailed to:
Board of Parole Hearings
P. O. Box 4036
Sacramento CA 95812-4936
ATTN: Pre hearing correspondence
Email address is BPH.CorrespondenceUnit@cdcr.ca.gov.
Open your letter with Dear Parole Board, and ask them to parole Sirhan with, in addition to the above, the fact that he has more than served his time.
There is also a new law that says people under 26 at the time of their crime (Sirhan was 24) should have their youth weighted higher in their parole decisions. A key factor in someone getting paroled can be public interest, hence the request for our readers to write. You would be surprised how a few letters can change things. So please help
