Yitzhak Rabin’s jailed assassin, Yigal Amir, reportedly is expecting a child. Citing sources close to his family, Ma’ariv reported Tuesday that Amir, who is serving a life sentence, impregnated his wife, Larissa Trimbobler, during a recent conjugal visit. Amir was jailed for murdering the Israeli prime minister in 1995, but only last year did the Prisons
Service fully recognize his marriage to Trimbobler, which was performed in a proxy ceremony. Amir’s family had no immediate comment on the Ma’ariv report.
