Background
Robert Francis "Bobby" Kennedy (November 20, 1925 – June 6, 1968), was an American politician from Massachusetts. He served as a senator for New York from 1965 until his assassination in 1968. He was previously the 64th U.S. Attorney General from 1961 to 1964, serving under his older brother, President John F. Kennedy and his successor, President Lyndon B. Johnson.
In 1968, Kennedy was a leading candidate for the Democratic nomination for the presidency, appealing especially to poor, African-American, Hispanic, and Catholic voters. Shortly after midnight on June 5th , 1968, after defeating Senator Eugene McCarthy in the California presidential primary, he was shot by Sirhan Sirhan, a 24-year-old Palestinian, and died the following day.
A description of the experience

On April 16, before Vaughan wrote to the Bureau, Mrs Joan Hope sent this note from Canada:
"Robert Kennedy to follow in his brother's footsteps. . ."
Another prophecy of the killing came in symbolic form from Daphne Piddock of Kent, England. On June 5th she wrote in her diary
"Janitor will die today."
She was puzzled by the reference but realized later that the word should be "Senator."
Many predictions come in garbled form and must be interpreted.
The fourth prediction came from Lorna Middleton, who has both American and British citizenship. Her first intimation that Robert Kennedy would be assassinated came on March 15th , 1968, and returned on March 21st, At the beginning of April she told a reporter from a London newspaper:
"The word assassination continues. I cannot disconnect it from Robert Kennedy. It may be that history will repeat itself."
Later Miss Middleton wrote to Dr. Barker:
"There may be another assassination. It may be in America shortly."
Once more the dark clouds began to form. On June 4th , 1968, Miss Middleton was now positive that the killing would take place and wrote:
"Another assassination and again in America."
So emotionally overwrought was she that she telephoned the London Bureau three times and kept insisting that the killing was imminent.
