Who Killed Martin Luther King Jr.?
Truch at Last:The Untold Story of James Earl Ray and the Assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.
On April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee. A year later, James Earl Ray pled guilty to the murder under the pressure of federal agents, and was sentenced to 99 years in prison. But did Ray really kill MLK? Now, at the 40th anniversary of the death of one of America’s greatest leaders, the man who knew James Earl Ray best, his eldest brother, John Larry Ray, offers evidence that Ray could not have assassinated Dr. King – and that he was merely a pawn in a U.S. government conspiracy.
In “Truth at Last,” John Larry Ray, along with historian and co-author Lyndon Barsten, reveals for the first time everything he has long known about the circumstances of his brother’s plea bargain, as well as what he has since learned from thousands of once-secret government documents. Among their findings:
The night before the assassination, James Earl Ray confided to his brother that he feared he was being set up to take the fall in an undisclosed operation.
Ray had been inducted into the CIA and subjected to mind control experiments; two years before the assassination, he was under the influence of several government-related hypnotists seemingly working to make him an obedient patsy.
Forensics do not support the claim that Ray shot Dr. King.
“John Larry Ray is the only living person who knows the truth about the King case.”
