Yes, Robert Kennedy's assassin Sirhan B. Sirhan is alive and in jail.

Sirhan was convicted on April 17, 1969 and was sentenced six days later to death in a gas chamber. The sentence was commuted to life in prison in 1972 after the California Supreme Court, in its decision in California v. Anderson 64 Cal.2d 633, 414 P.2d 366, (Cal. 1972), invalidated all pending death sentences imposed in California prior to 1972.

A parole hearing for Sirhan is now scheduled every five years. On March 15, 2006, he was denied parole for the 13th time. He did not attend the hearing, nor did he appoint a new attorney to represent him after his attorney Lawrence Teeter passed away in 2005. His next possible chance for parole will be in 2011.

Yes, he is at Caliifornia State Prison, Corcoran.
