I had forgotten they found James Earl Ray in London. But I do remember - fascinating how memory works (or doesnt) - that at a very early stage of the pursuit, officials were looking for a suspect named Eric Stavro Galt. Which reminded 10-yr-old me of Ernst Stavro Blofeld.

Odd that same day. MLK accomplished much and his accomplishments effectively continued after death. Don't under RFK fascination. Awful that he was killed, but little reason to expect he would have been elected president or accomplished anything even if he had.

These two men (MLK and JFK) are both great Idols to me and their speeches are task and support in my daily life.

Many feel the authorities never got to the bottom of any of these assassinations in the 60s. Who was really behind them.

and such a moving eulogy......"my brother need not be idealized in death beyond what he was in life: to be remembered simply as a good and decent man who saw wrong and tried to right it, who saw suffering and tried to heal it, who saw war and tried to stop it......."

One wonders how MLK's assassin broke out of prison, obtained a rifle and multiple fake passports, found MLK while on the lamb from police, prison guards, and bounty hunters, then shot MLK and paid his way to London for his getaway.

Eric Rudolph, convicted of multiple bombings in Atlanta in the mid to late 90’s, including the Olympic Bombing, eluded police for 5 years. It was widely believed he had a lot of help from like minded people in No. Ga and Carolina mountains.

I drove to school in my dad's '54 Fleetwood Cadillac to pick up my senior year report card, and heard ppl on the radio talking about "Kennedy". I said "What? He died five years ago!" Then I realized it was Robert Kennedy. It didn't make that much impact - we were rock-ribbed 1/2

Republicans. But I remember glimpses from that week: the solemnity (observed even by my Republican family) of the train journey, the funeral, the burial, and that unforgettable Life Magazine cover. And the realization that out of four Kennedy brothers, there was only one left.2/2
