0:00:02.480 --> 0:00:04.600
<v Speaker 1>When I got home, my wife and I was in

0:00:04.640 --> 0:00:08.360
<v Speaker 1>the kitchen and it came over radio and it just

0:00:08.520 --> 0:00:12.360
<v Speaker 1>knocked me down. Martin Luther King Jr. Was killed tonight

0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:15.319
<v Speaker 1>in Memphis, Tennessee, shot in the face as he stood

0:00:15.320 --> 0:00:18.759
<v Speaker 1>alone on the balcony of his hotel room, just saying

0:00:18.840 --> 0:00:23.119
<v Speaker 1>with me and my Sirion, they scared for me, But

0:00:23.920 --> 0:00:27.640
<v Speaker 1>the Lord told me not the word. I wanted to

0:00:27.680 --> 0:00:30.000
<v Speaker 1>tell this here, I've ben't want to tell it. All

0:00:30.000 --> 0:00:35.720
<v Speaker 1>My lions, you know the story. On April four, Dr

0:00:35.800 --> 0:00:38.479
<v Speaker 1>Martin Luther King was shot and killed in Memphis. A

0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:42.080
<v Speaker 1>petty criminal named James Earl Ray was arrested. He pled

0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:44.239
<v Speaker 1>guilty to the crime and spent the rest of his

0:00:44.320 --> 0:00:51.640
<v Speaker 1>life in prison. Case closed right. One of the problems

0:00:51.680 --> 0:00:55.120
<v Speaker 1>that came out when I got the Ray case was

0:00:55.200 --> 0:00:58.800
<v Speaker 1>that some of the evidence, as far as I was concerned,

0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:02.959
<v Speaker 1>did not match the circumstances. The authorities were paraded. Oh,

0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:05.840
<v Speaker 1>we found a gun that James L. Ray bought in

0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:10.280
<v Speaker 1>Birmingham that killed Dr. King, Except it wasn't the gun

0:01:10.280 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 1>that killed Dr. King. Since Ray didn't have a trial,

0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:16.160
<v Speaker 1>the evidence against him was never tested by a jury,

0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:18.760
<v Speaker 1>and witnesses with the counts that didn't fit with the

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:21.559
<v Speaker 1>official narrative never got a chance to take the stand.

0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:25.880
<v Speaker 1>But over the years, one by one people overcame fear

0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:29.520
<v Speaker 1>and stepped forward with what they saw, what they heard,

0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:33.640
<v Speaker 1>and in some cases what they did. The plan was

0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:37.880
<v Speaker 1>to get King to the city because they wanted it

0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:41.039
<v Speaker 1>handled in Memphis. Were dead in them could Hammon. I

0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:44.840
<v Speaker 1>called the Union Hall as his matter life and death.

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:47.960
<v Speaker 1>I said, I thank these peoples of planning to kill

0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:52.000
<v Speaker 1>Dr King. From My Heart Radio and Tenderfoot TV, a

0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>new series that challenges what we've all been told about

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:59.320
<v Speaker 1>the murder of Martin Luther King, A story told by

0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:02.240
<v Speaker 1>people who would there. The news media likes to put

0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:05.520
<v Speaker 1>it out. James Earl Ray, the self confessed killer of

0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Dr Martin Luther King. Well that's an error. He never confessed.

0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:16.320
<v Speaker 1>He always denied it. James Elvy was upon for the

0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:29.400
<v Speaker 1>official story. I'm Bill Claibur and this is the MLK tapes. Well,

0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:34.240
<v Speaker 1>there were great and I knew right do the killing

0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:37.120
<v Speaker 1>because I was looking at him with the Jacques we barked.

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:39.720
