Investigative Reporter and Author Mark Shaw 12-9-2025

In his explosive new book, ABUSE OF POWER, bestselling author, former noted criminal defense attorney, and TV network legal analyst Mark Shaw affirms RFK, Jr.'s sense that Sirhan Sirhan was not accountable for the 1968 assassination of Robert F. Kennedy. Shaw, however, refutes the HHS Secretary's theory that his father's murder was linked to the CIA. Backed by shocking new evidence, Shaw exposes the real mastermind-the one with the strongest motive to want RFK dead-New Orleans mafia don Carlos Marcello. Further, the author deduces that Sirhan was "recruited" as a "patsy" to defer suspicions of Marcello's involvement. The result: for nearly 60 years, Sirhan has languished in a prison cell because, Shaw believes, he was denied justice from the moment he was arrested.  Mark Shaw joined Mike Pomp on the Morning Information Center to discuss the book.
