It was one of the most wrenching episodes in modern American history: the murder of Robert F. Kennedy, the very night he won the California presidential primary on June 4, 1968. Watch the story unfold as it was covered by NBC News at the time: the tragic events at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles; the funeral service at St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York, with Edward Kennedy's moving eulogy; and the emotional journey by train from New York to Washington, where Robert Kennedy was taken to Arlington cemetery to be buried near his slain brother. This is a new program, available here for the first time. It has been painstakingly assembled from newly restored footage, some of it newly discovered and not seen in decades.
