Yitzhak Rabin’s assassin was rapped for groping his fiancee during a jailhouse visit. Israeli media quoted Prisons Service officials as saying Yigal Amir, who is serving a life sentence for shooting the Israeli prime minister in 1995, “got frisky” with fiancee Larissa Trimbobbler when they met under guard Thursday. According to regulations, inmates are allowed to give visitors a friendly kiss but no more.
