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. ....
Final Call News by Nabaâa Muhammad, and Starla Muhammad NEW YORKâA confession by an undercover NYPD officer and infiltrator of Black organizations cast additional light on the governmentâs hand in the killing of Malcolm X in the Audubon Ballroom in 1965 and prompted renewed demands that all files related to the killing of the Black Nationalist leaderâespecially the full FBI filesâbe made public now.

The pair were therefore not present at New York’s Audubon Ballroom event days later, where Malcolm X was slated to speak and later was killed by gunmen. ....
The 2011 letter by now-deceased New York police officer Raymond A. Wood stated that Wood had been compelled by his NYPD supervisors to coax two members of Malcolm X’s security team into committing crimes, leading to their arrests just a few days before the 1965 assassination and leaving Malcolm X more vulnerable to attack. ....
cocomaan Yes, but which political party has the will to take on these agencies? For instance, it’s remarkable how wrapped up Democrats are in FBI worship today considering that Maxine Waters once went after the CIA for running drugs into her district. There’s been a real party reversal. Once, the FBI and the CIA and the alphabet soup of intelligence agencies were the domain of Neo-conservatives like Hoover and Nixon. Now they’ve transformed into something else. I’ll never forget Tim Kaine, in the 2016 vice presidential debate, calling for an “Intelligence Surge”. It was when I realized something had changed. ....
