LEE HARVEY OSWALD GUNNED DOWN DURING TRANSFER
Dallas, Texas (JFKASSASSINATION) On Sunday morning, November 24, 1963, the alleged assassin of President John F. Kennedy was shot as he was being transferred from the Dallas County Jail. The event, occurring in the basement of Dallas Police Headquarters, was broadcast live on national television.
The shooter was immediately taken into custody and identified as a local nightclub owner named Jack Ruby*. He was standing among reporters waiting for Oswald to appear when he stepped out and fired a single shot from his .38 special Colt Cobra into Oswald's abdomen at point blank range. Lee Harvey Oswald later died at Parkland Hospital.
A pertinent question is...How did Jack Ruby gain access to the basement of Dallas Police Headquarters?
Ruby's answer, accepted by the Warren Commission, was that he had simply walked down the ramp at a time the policeman guarding the ramp was distracted.
Edward J. Epstein writes that Commission staff member Burt Griffin...
"found...Ruby's story...was contradicted by other evidence. The police officer guarding the ramp categorically denied that Ruby could have entered by the ramp, and four police officers, who had driven up the ramp at virtually the only time that Ruby could have descended, testified that they did NOT see Ruby on the ramp."
Epstein states that this contradiction raises "the possibility that (Ruby) had had assistance in entering the basement."
Robert J. Groden minces no words...
"There is every indication that Jack Ruby stalked and assassinated Lee to silence him, and that he acted on behalf of those above him in the mob."
*Jacob "Jack" Leon Rubenstein (1911-1967) was born in Chicago to Polish-born parents. He moved to Dallas in 1947 where he ran several nightclubs. .
JLR was arrested 8 times by the Dallas Police 1949-1963. Charges included disturbing the peace, carrying a concealed weapon, violation of state liquor laws, simple assault & ignoring traffic summons.
