we would like to think that the "authorities" always get the bad guy and the official version is all nicde and tight with all the facts in the right places. but life is more complicated than we think. sometimes powerful alliances form and are able to do things outside the "law" and yet we nod and wink. the motel was a perfect ambush site and the guy arreated the perfect fall guy. no real connections and ray had to remain dependent on who paid him. for the people with the power -things happen.
RFK had planned on asking him to be his running mate - what a wonderful world we would have had. Evil, murdering bastards. Ray was MK-Ultra'd and/or railroaded. This 'dirty tricks' crew pulled off the other Coup D'Etat - the JFK assassination.
James Earl Ray is innocent for a fact because they admitted it but just as someone said in one of these comments is"the CIA did it" and yes they most likely did because Martin had power,democracy,leadership,and resources and we all know that the CIA didn't want Martin to get in the way of their business and hired or theived some one to take the fall for what they did.
@pglove69 Umm...CIA did it? gee..who knows.. a black man with powerful motives and followers against a corrupt war for superiority and ideals? Of course a scape goat gets the gallows...
james was not a racist, james brother is a lyer a disinformation plant, james would shoot dice with black workers every day after work. the gov and mafia had king killed
I have been to Martin Luthers house that he was born in and the house that he died in. So the answer is yes you moron... Let me ask you this... do you know where he was born? do you know where he died? have you been there?
And i HIGHLY doubt that his father hand his name "changed" to honor Martin Luther.
He was not a preacher you idiots! do some research before you spout your stupidity here... Did you know that MLK had BIG ties to Communism????
why dont you morons actually read about what a piece of garbage Michael King was... yea thats right... micheal king is his real name.... he never had it legally changed... his dad said that is his name.. total joke.
@romad10 Ah who cares redneck? Go back to your trailer home & stop having sex with your sister...Who cares what his name was at birth? We all know him as Martin. His father changed his name to dignify the accomplishments of the German protestant preacher-Martin Luther-do you even know who he was trailer trash? Or if you can even read my comments? LOL
@SyrenniaLestrange Earl ray didn't commit the murder, i'm sorry you are a fucking idiot. the U.S. govt was def behind this.. the song of MLK tried very hard to give Earl a retrial, but this was never given. your a fucking moron sheep.

As a black male of age 37, I believe that James Earl was innocent, but I will fall short of calling his brother John Ray's book truth.

@romadonezero You can be a preacher and a marxist too. As I'm sure you know, thousands of liberation theologans function even today.

wanna know who killed MLK? google Loyd Jowers. Or read books by a man named William Pepper.

99 years in prison was hardly a good enough punishment for his crime.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., thank you for all you've done. you will be remembered forever. RIP. <3

Wake up! He was the scapegoat, after all MLK was a threat to the establishment, and nobody can deny such claim.

That's Mark Lane in the picture at 1:45. He was attorney James Earl Ray, and also attorney for The People's Temple and the American Free Press.
