(Newser) – Update: Gov. Gavin Newsom has decided Sen. Robert F. Kennedy’s killer will remain in a California prison, ignoring a parole board’s recommendation. Newsom said Sirhan has yet to accept responsibility for the crime, Politico reports. Nor has he disclaimed violence, the governor’s statement said. «Sirhan lacks the insight that would prevent him from making the same types of dangerous decisions he made in the past,» he said. In an opinion piece Thursday in the Los Angeles Times, Newsom wrote, «Kennedy’s assassination not only changed the course of this nation and robbed the world of a promising young leader, it also left his 11 children without a father and his wife without a husband.
