Did a Black undercover NYPD cop unwittingly aid Malcolm X s assassination? By The Washington Post By Sydney Trent On Feb. 20, Reginald Wood Jr., a bespectacled, balding man in a dark suit and striped tie, walked across the wooden stage to the podium at the Malcolm X and Dr. Betty Shabazz Memorial and Educational Center in Manhattan. The place and timing were weighty with symbolism. The centre had been built on the former site of the Audubon Ballroom, where Malcolm X was assassinated 56 years ago that very weekend. Wood was also speaking on the eve of the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin in the killing of George Floyd last May. A heightened suspicion of law enforcement swirled in the air, just as it did after Malcolm was murdered.

Daughter of Ex-Officer Who Claimed FBI and NYPD Were Behind Malcolm X s Death Says Letter Is Fake; Family Says She Was Estranged from Her Father

“I know that my father did not write this letter,” Kelly Wood told NY1. “I know that is not his signature and I know the envelope they’re using to somehow justify that the letter was mailed is also a fake.” The letter was made public by the family of Malcolm X on Feb. 20, 56 years after the liberation icon was murdered in 1965 while addressing his Organization of Afro-American Unity at the Audubon Ballroom in the Washington Heights neighborhood of New York’s Manhattan borough. Three members of the Nation of Islam were convicted in his murder. In the letter attributed to former undercover NYPD officer Raymond Wood, he confessed that he had aided the department and the FBI in their joint effort to assassinate Malcolm X by ensuring members of his security detail would not be present during the address to manage door security on the day of the assassination.

Did Former Officer Say NYPD, FBI Conspired In Assassination of Malcolm X?

Origin In February 2021, Snopes became aware of news reports and social media posts claiming a former New York Police Department (NYPD) officer authored a letter on his deathbed that served as evidence that the NYPD and FBI conspired in the 1965 murder of civil rights activist and Nation of Islam figurehead Malcolm X. The posts’ underlying claims were these: that a Black man named Raymond Wood wrote a letter shortly before his death that authentically outlined his experience working as an undercover NYPD officer in the mid-1960’s, when, he supposedly claimed, his supervisors ordered him to carry out a secret plan that led to the killing of the famed Black leader.

It’s been 56 years since that fateful day in New York when the late Ray Wood says a federal agent directed him to go to the ballroom for a speech by Malcolm X and observe something that would happen. He said he watched as the fatal shooting took place and the FBI and the NYPD were involved.
