Summary
In A Lie Too Big to Fail, longtime Kennedy researcher (of both JFK and RFK) Lisa Pease lays out, in meticulous detail, how witnesses with evidence of conspiracy were silenced by the Los Angeles Police Department; how evidence was deliberately altered and, in some instances, destroyed; and how the justice system and the media failed to present the truth of the case to the public. Pease reveals how the trial was essentially a sham, and how the prosecution did not dare to follow where the evidence led.
A Lie Too Big to Fail asserts the idea that a government can never investigate itself in a crime of this magnitude. Was the convicted Sirhan Sirhan a willing participant? Or was he a mind-controlled assassin? It has fallen to independent researchers like Pease to lay out the evidence in a clear and concise manner, allowing listeners to form their theories about this event. Pease places the history of this event in the context of the era and provides shocking overlaps between other high-profile murders and attempted murders of the time. Lisa Pease goes further than anyone else in proving who likely planned the assassination, who the assassination team members were, and why Kennedy was deemed such a threat that he had to be taken out before he became President of the United States.

Makes beautifully obvious what an outrageous mockery of justice has taken place
Well worth a read by anyone interested in the history of the USA, the Cold War, espionage, the 60s, miscarriages of justice, the list goes on. Brilliant.

A book too brilliant to go unread!
A most riveting read and clearly researched with such bravery, skill and devotion to her craft. Lisa Pease may I thank you for this book. A lifetime’s achievement by any standard. Your care and attention to detail is so refreshing in these times. This book should be a compulsory read in every school - not just in the USA. Truth must out eventually and let us hope that Sirhan is released soon.

Essential Reading
A Lie Too Big To Fail is an incredible work. The level of detail it goes into is immense and it is presented in an engaging and interesting manner. Anyone who reads/listens to this book will seriously question why Sirhan Sirhan is still in prison. Even with the authorities destroying evidence and appearing to tamper with other evidence the case is set out very clearly as to what very likely happened. Donna Postel does an amazing narration, she is the best narrator i have heard so far. If interested in RFK this book is a must buy.

A lot more than conspiracy theory???
Pease focuses on an American government agency skilled at managing the media and the politicians. Not to mention, if you believe her, there’s an agency that answers to none.
Pease offers answers to the questions about how and who killed Robert Kennedy in 1968
She puts Kennedy’s killing into context - just one of a string of assassinations!
Pease offers an interesting explanation for why Donald Trump came to power- overall she appears to view America as in the grip of a right wing elite unfettered by the constitution - if you believe it…

An excellent book correcting history.
When you hear that Sirhan Sirhan wasn’t the killer of Robert F Kennedy, knowing what happened to his brother, President Kennedy, you assume foul play was likely. What has been implied is that Thane Eugene Cesar was the actual killer. However, the whole thing is so much deeper and complex than that, the number of people involved was vast and the lengths people have gone to cover it up are staggering. By half way through the book you are left in no doubt it was a conspiracy involving multiple people but, what is interesting is the people who were involved and how they went about it. Everything leads to the CIA and corrupt police work. RFK was a threat to continuing corrupt and to those responsible for his brother’s death in Dallas, 1963. What a price this family paid for being idealists and showing compasion.

Scary that the CIA got rid of another Kennedy
Just mad that the CIA could murder the President to be just like his brother, because they didn't share the same view of world politics. The CIA were out of control and it is incredible that the official line is still maintained that lone assasins were responsible. The truth really is always stranger than fiction. Poor Sirhan Sirhan still languishing in jail since 1968.

I liked it
I was aware of Kennedy being shot from close to the head, but the research that have gone into this book is a marvel.
