Fifty years after Dallas nightclub owner Jack Ruby killed Lee Harvey Oswald, one of Ruby's good friends is talking publicly for the first time.
Oklahoma City resident Mary Gray McCoy visited her friend, Ruby, in jail about a week after Oswald was shot. She continued to visit him until a few days before his mysterious death.
When President Kennedy was making his way through the streets of downtown Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963, McCoy was busy working at a hotel across the street from one of Ruby's nightclubs.
"I don't know just what they did in there," McCoy said. "They had entertainers, dancers. I was never in the club."
Now at the age of 100, with a strong long-term memory, McCoy is finally telling her story.
"[Ruby] never cracked a smile," said McCoy. "He was all business."
Several times a week, Ruby would stop by McCoy's hotel to break change after regular banking hours. McCoy says that's how she met the would-be killer.

So, what you are saying is that something like this was possible:
1. LBJ’s team decides that Oswald needs to be made to permanently stop talking.
2. Someone on the “LBJ team” gets to Jack Ruby and makes a promise to pardon him to get rid of Oswald. I’m guessing they had some blackmail on Ruby that was included in all this.
3. Jack Ruby does his part of the deal.
4. The “LBJ team” gets amnesia and becomes unavailable to Jack Ruby to make good on the deal for a pardon and other forgiveness on shady Texas activities by Jack Ruby.
5. The “LBJ team” arranges for Jack Ruby to stop talking permanently.
P.S. I could see a scenario where nobody that LBJ knows well was involved on these activities. What they would have just need to believe was that LBJ would take a more favorable path on some decision(s) than JFK. For example, look at Sirhan Sirhan and his views about who should not be the 1968 Dem nomination. I don’t blame Hubert Humphrey for that. I blame Sirhan Sirhan for that.
P.P.S. Occam’s Razor is that Oswald acted alone. Nevertheless, I wasn’t yet born until years later. So, I can’t know for sure.

He was Jacob Leon Rubinstein. He owned and ran a strip club and had mob connections. Not sure that he was Jewish makes it an Israeli plot.

Trump had the authority to release the records last term, but he didn’t; and I doubt he will release the records this term. I wish he would, and I hope I am wrong.

VERY poor personnel choices,caused this 5o b3 the way it was. He was a literal neophyte in politics and relied on some very dubious advice.
To: Uncle Miltie
I am merely bringing it up. If Trump breaks his promise again, and does not release all the files THIS time, I will bet my pinkie finger that what I am suggesting as an alternative theory is the reason.

I’ll just add...there was a strong attempt to inspect their nuclear energy facility, and it came to pass that they had built a fake control/lab area for the US inspection team. Once this got back to JFK....he lost all trust in what they were saying.
To: DallasBiff
Ruby was mob-connected through his activities as a pimp, drug dealer and night club-operator. On the morning of the JFK assassination he invited an FBI informant to go “watch the fireworks.”
https://www.archives.gov/files/research/jfk/releases/docid-32149267.pdf
Bottom line is that Ruby’s role was to silence Oswald forever... so that a narrative could be spun without interference from Oswald’s continued existence.
To: Uncle Miltie
Please don’t start this Jew thing all over again. AIPAC did not exist in 1963 and there is no Jewish or Israeli conspiracy here. There IS however a LBJ, Hoover, LeMay conspiracy.

P.P.S. Occam’s Razor is that Oswald acted alone.
If you did any basic JFK research, Occam's Razor would say Oswald wasn't one of the shooters.
Both the U.S. Army and the FBI testified to the Warren Commission that Oswald's rifle, found on the sixth floor of the TSBD, was not in usable condition at the time of the shooting:
1. Shims had to be applied to the telescopic sight before the rifle could be aimed.
2. Even after the telescopic sight had been repaired, it proved unreliable and inaccurate.
3. The condition of both the bolt and the trigger pull meant that the rifle could not be aimed accurately.
You can read their testimony here:

“I’m just grateful that Governor and Mrs. Connally were okay.”
Collarteral damage. The shot that winged Connally was supposed to be blocked off with Kennedy’s body when it came from the DalTex building across the street from the Book storage building where Ozwald was supposed to have been. It happened on a right hand weave with the road. Interesting addition is that Abraham Zapruder, the filmer of the Zapruder tapes, had an office in that building. Obviously the shot got through and hit Connally. But time erases all facts as witnesses die, documents can be changed, and people need protecting.
