I suppose he sniped him from 100 yards with a .22lr. too.Bruce » 13 Sep 2023, 7:20 am » wrote: ↑ According to the FBI, on April 4, 1968, Ray killed civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr. with a single shot fired from his Remington rifle, while King was standing on the second-floor balcony of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee. Shortly after the shot was fired, witnesses saw Ray fleeing from a rooming house across the street from the motel where he had been renting a room. A package was abandoned close to the site that included a rifle and binoculars, both found with Ray's fingerprints.[26][27][28]
Apprehension and plea
Edit
Ray fled to Atlanta in his white Ford Mustang, driving eleven hours.[29][30] He picked up his belongings and fled north to Canada, arriving in Toronto three days later, where he hid for over a month and acquired a Canadian passport under the false name of Ramon George Sneyd. He left Toronto in late May on a flight to England.[31] He stayed briefly in Lisbon, Portugal, and returned to London.[32] In London, on June 4, he called The Daily Telegraph and requested to talk to Ian Colvin, the newspaper's foreign correspondent in Africa and the Middle East, whose articles about Africa he claimed to have read, and asked him to connect him to former British Army Commandant Alistair Wicks about the possibility of becoming a mercenary in Africa. Ray contacted Colvin again on June 6 for further inquiry, after Wicks had decided not to return the call. Colvin told Ray that it wasn't a good time to become a mercenary, but nevertheless gave him an address in Brussels.[33][34] Ray was then arrested at London Heathrow Airport attempting to leave the United Kingdom for Brussels. He was trying to depart the United Kingdom for Angola, Rhodesia, or apartheid South Africa[35] using the falsified Canadian passport.[36] At check-in, the ticket agent noticed the name on his passport, Sneyd, was on a Royal Canadian Mounted Police watchlist.[37][38]
Airport officials noticed that Ray carried another passport under a second name. The UK quickly extradited Ray to Tennessee, where he was charged with King's murder. He confessed to the crime on March 10, 1969, his 41st birthday,[39] and after pleading guilty he was sentenced to 99 years in prison.[40]

I should probably sell my 30/.06 and buy more ammo for my 10/22.
Why do you always debate reasonable doubts? Rhetorical question. History explains how you chose who you rather be cradle to grave.

Your mentality has specific behavioral patterns that stereotype people honoring their intellectual typecast behavior defined in rule of law defending self deception every generation here.Bruce » 13 Sep 2023, 7:58 am » wrote: ↑ James Earl Ray and Danelo Cavalcante are good arguments for a death penalty.
