Bigger Than A Who Done It Cuz They Know Mark Shaw Returns With Abuse Of Power

from Arroe Collins Like It's Live · host Arroe Collins

In his explosive new book, ABUSE OF POWER (December 2, 2025; Post Hill Press; ISBN: 979-8895654903;$21.00 Paperback), 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.Based on Shaw’s nearly 15 years of extensive research, ABUSE OF POWER exposes, for the first time, the connection between the assassinations of John and Robert Kennedy and the mysterious death of famed journalist Dorothy Kilgallen, with Marcello as the culprit for each. The mafia don used patsies to cover his complicity—a pattern that had never been revealed before. For Shaw, the key to this conclusion is an FBI file transcript, an audiotaped “confession” Marcello made to a fellow inmate at a Texas federal prison on December 15, 1985. While expressing his intense dislike of the former president, the mafia don confided, “Yeah, I had the son of a bitch killed. I’m glad I did it. I’m sorry I couldn’t have done it myself.” Predictably, the 24-year-old Sirhan became the fall guy. Before getting caught up in the mafia don’s murder plot, Sirhan, per FBI records, worked at Santa Anita Racetrack in Southern California where John Shear, a paddock captain hailed as a hero for saving a little girl from being stampeded by a wild horse, hired Sirhan as a “hot walker” for the meager sum of $200 a month.Like a prosecutor building his case, Shaw uses this jaw-dropping admission as the stepping stone to “indicting” Marcello for RFK’s murder. Why? Because RFK, who knew the mafia don had orchestrated his brother’s assassination to render the then-attorney general powerless, had illegally deported Marcello. So, when RFK announced his campaign for president in March 1968 and then won several primaries, Marcello devised a diabolical plan to protect his multimillion-dollar empire while also exacting his revenge.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.
