Personal Fact of James Earl Ray | |
James Earl Ray was an American assassin convicted for the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. After his conviction, he spent all his life in prison. Born in a poor family, Ray had a difficult childhood as his father could not support his family. His father was involved in a cheque forgery case and had to shift to a different city to escape the law enforcement agencies. Ray was involved in a number of crimes after his return from the military service. He was convicted multiple times and escaped from prison once. Before assassinating King, Ray was said to have strong prejudice towards the black people and volunteered in the presidential campaign of George Wallace – a known opponent of integration. Despite his conviction doubts still linger regarding his exact role in the assassination of King. Even the family of King doubted whether he was the actual assassin and requested for a retrial in the last years of his life. |
