guilty of murder with malice and given the sentence of death by the electric chair. what do you think of this verdict? i believe that jack ruby was a paid killer to close the mouth of my son, lee harvey oswald. the question of whether ruby knew oswald before is one of the most important questions. ruby knew people in criminal activities, there was a lot of investigation of a potential conspiracy. ruby would have been one of the most unlikely and worst hit men that the mob could ever get. november 24th, 1963, oswald was supposed to be transferred. ruby got dressed and went downtown. the receipt shows ruby was sending a money order to one of his strippers at a western
what in the hell is going on? just learned from city hall from an authoritative source, that police are working on the assumption that there, indeed, a connection between jack ruby and lee oswald. and that in some manner of speaking, oswald s murder was to shut him up. captain fritz has just told me that ruby said he did it, that it was his gun and that he had built up a tremendous grievance over the death of the president. in jack ruby s small mind, he thought he would be a hero. he killed the guy who killed the president. i commend what he did. i think he ought to win the congressional medal of honor for it. and i lot of good american citizens think he did the right thing in shooting down this communist. word also in just now from
chair after the jury deliberated 2 hours and 25 minutes. just what do you think of this verdict? i believe that jack ruby was a paid killer to close the mouth of my son, lee harvey oswald. the question of whether ruby knew oswald before or was in cahoots to kill him is one of the most important questions. because ruby knew people in criminal activities, there was a lot of investigation about a potential conspiracy. ruby would have been one of the most unlikely and worst hit men that the mob could ever get. on november the 24th, 1963, lee harvey oswald is supposed to have been transferred at 10:00. at 10:00, the evidence is undisputed that jack ruby was at home asleep. then he got dressed and drove downtown. the receipt shows that ruby was sending a money order to one of his strippers from a western union office across from the courthouse at 11:17 a.m.
oswald expired at 1:07 p.m. he died? he died at 1:07 p.m. we have arrested the man. the man will be charged with murder. who is he? the man the suspect s name is jack rubenstein, i believe. he goes by the name of jack ruby. and here at associated press, a still picture of the moment, the splint second as the shot was fired. this is the man dallas police have identified as jack rubenstein and this of course is lee harvey oswald. you see the gun in the hand of ruby and just about to be fired. i know my own feelings were and i think they were widely shared by many, if not most americans. this can t be coincidental. the assassin is assassinated in the police station.
when you have a great number of people devoting their lives to looking at every word, every comma, they can create a lot of mischief. i believe very firmly that ruby and oswald knew each other, and certainly tippet and ruby knew each other. before we proceed with that kind of questioning, let me ask you. what kind of conspiracy do you think? was it a communist? left wing or right wing conspiracy? i am convinced that there were two riflemen. the warren commission was set up, as you know, at the request and urging of the communist party. it s obvious that he was working for somebody else at that moment, and that somebody else could not be anyone else than fidel castro. there s no doubt of oswald having been in the window of that building. my opinion, castro violence. there was an entire world of assassination.
