Default Missing RFK assassination photos

I first encountered this unbelievable information here: 5 Lost Photos That Could Have Changed History | Cracked.com so I wanted to give credit there. The actual quoted article is at : Jamie Scott Enyart : Biography

Jamie Scott Enyart



Jamie Scott Enyart was born in 1953. On 6th June, 1968, Enyart, a 15 year old high school student, a high-school student, was taking photographs of Robert F. Kennedy as he was walking from the ballroom of the Ambassador Hotel to the Colonial Room where the press conference was due to take place. Enyart was standing slightly behind Kennedy when the shooting began and snapped as fast as he could.

As Enyart was leaving the pantry, two LAPD officers accosted him at gunpoint and seized his three, 36-exposure rolls of film. Later, he was told by Detective Dudley Varney that the photographs were needed as evidence in the trial of Sirhan Sirhan. The photographs were not presented as evidence but the court ordered that all evidential materials had to be sealed for twenty years.

In 1988 Scott Enyart requested that his photographs should be returned. At first the State Archives claimed they could not find them and that they must have been destroyed by mistake. Enyart filed a lawsuit which finally came to trial in 1996. During the trial the Los Angeles city attorney announced that the photos had been found in its Sacramento office and would be brought to the courthouse by the courier retained by the State Archives. The following day it was announced that the courier’s briefcase, that contained the photographs, had been stolen from the car he rented at the airport. The photographs have never been recovered and the jury subsequently awarded Scott Enyart $450,000 in damages.

I heard an interview with the man, your story covers the high points the there was much more strange coincidence than mentioned above.
He's convinced they are still just corruptly covering up evidence after all these years. How many coincidences and bits of counter evidence has to show up before we admit that it's just to much.

very interesting....

....Robert Kennedy's autopsy report. Coroner Thomas Naguchi determined that RFK had been shot three times, all from the rear at a steep upward angle, with powder burns indicating that the fatal shot being fired from 1 or 2 inches away. (But Sirhan's weapon was never closer than 3 feet)
Sirhan's Iverson .22 revolver held a maximum of 8 bullets. Two bullets were removed from RFK, and five from other victims. One of the three bullets to strike RFK grazed him and was determined by LAPD to have gone into the ceiling, though it was never recovered. That accounts for all 8, even conceding the LAPD's reconstruction which explained away bullet holes found in ceiling tiles, by positing that one of the bullets had ricocheted back down and struck victims (causing two ceiling holes in the process).

What is not accounted for are bullet holes in the doorframe where RFK's party had entered the pantry. Photographs taken by the FBI, LAPD, and AP show apparent bullet holes, which have been circled and initialed. Some pictures show police officers pointing at them; one AP photo is labeled "Bullet found near Kennedy shooting scene." Two police officers depicted in the photos told author Vincent Bugliosi that they had observed an actual bullet embedded in the wood of the center door frame. Hotel waiter Martin Patrusky said that police officers told him that they had dug two bullets out of the center divider. FBI agent William Bailey, in the pantry within hours of the shooting, said he could see the base of the bullet in the center divider. Other confirmation comes from photographers and even the carpenter who assisted in removal of the door frame for police evidence. ...

Quote:
In a new interview with CNN, a Robert F. Kennedy campaign volunteer and witness to his assassination insists that convicted assassin Sirhan Sirhan did not act alone. "There were more than eight shots," Nina Rhodes-Hughes says. "There were at least 12, maybe 14," which would have exceeded Sirhan's gun's capacity. She told the FBI how many she heard, but she believes senior officials "twisted" her statements in order to "conform with what they wanted the public to believe, period." The FBI's claim that only eight shots were fired is "completely false," she says, adding that she also told the FBI she heard shots coming from a direction other than Sirhan's position. "There was another shooter to my right."

Sirhan's lawyers are using Rhodes-Hughes' claims in their challenge to his conviction; a federal court will soon rule on Sirhan's request to be released, retried, or given another hearing based on new evidence. At least four other witnesses also mentioned the possibility of more than eight shots, CNN notes, and an analysis of a newly uncovered recording identified the sounds of at least 13 shots—five of which were fired from a different direction and likely from a different type of gun. Witnesses have also said that Sirhan fired at more of a downward angle from Kennedy's front—which does not fit with the fact that Kennedy was hit from behind from bullets that were fired upward. ...
