The Plot to Kill King - The Truth Behind the Assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. (Paperback)

Bestselling author, James Earl Ray's defense attorney, and, later, lawyer for the King family William Pepper reveals who actually killed MLK. William Pepper was James Earl Ray's lawyer in the trial for the murder of Martin Luther King Jr., and even after Ray's conviction and death, Pepper continues to adamantly argue Ray's innocence. This myth-shattering expose is a revised, updated, and heavily expanded volume of Pepper's original bestselling and critically acclaimed book Orders to Kill, with twenty-six years of additional research included. The result reveals dramatic new details of the night of the murder, the trial, and why Ray was chosen to take the fall for an evil conspiracy-a government-sanctioned assassination of our nation's greatest leader. The plan, according to Pepper, was for a team of United States Army Special Forces snipers to kill King, but just as they were taking aim, a backup civilian assassin pulled the trigger. The table of contents include: Chapter 1: The Road to Memphis Chapter 2: Deathly Support Chapter 3: The Patsy Ritual Chapter 4: Questions Abound Chapter 5: The Prison Interview Chapter 6: The Deepening Plot Chapter 7: Showtime-Investigative Hearings Chapter 8: The Unscripted Television Trial Chapter 9: Doors Begin to Open Chapter 10: Roots of the Civil Trial Chapter 11: Discovery Chapter 12: A Darker, Deeper Scene Emerges Chapter 13: A Patsy's Death Chapter 14: A Key Player Begins to Talk Chapter 15: The Civil Trial Chapter 16: Raul Coelho ("Raul") Chapter 17: The Verdict and the Media Silence Chapter 18: A Courageous Witness Comes Forward Chapter 19: The Meeting Chapter 20: More Flesh on the Bones Chapter 21: The Ultimate Assassin In The Plot to Kill King, Pepper shares the evidence and testimonies that prove that Ray was a fall guy chosen by those who viewed King as a dangerous revolutionary. His findings make the book one of the most important of our time-the uncensored story of the murder of an American hero that contains disturbing revelations about the obscure inner-workings of our government and how it continues, even today, to obscure the truth.
