I was 27 at the time. I witnessed Ruby shooting Oswald live on Television.
I missed that-—I had very small children so the TV wasn’t on-——my mother called,hysterical,that she had just seen that shooting on TV.
It was so depressing——the entire thing.
.
I did as well. I was 11. We skipped church that Sunday and were glued to the TV so I saw it live too.
I was a junior in high school when I witnessed Ruby shooting Oswald. I had been glued in front of the family room TV listening to the news reports all my waking hours from the shocking day that Kennedy was shot that Friday, Nov. 22, 1963 when schools were closed early.
I witnessed in panic and astonishment this ordinary looking man, Jack Ruby, walking in and among police in the Dallas police station and shooting Oswald on live national TV, as Oswald was being walked somewhere in the hall of the police station.
I yelled for my parents to come downstairs and watch the shocking turn of events that had just transpired in Dallas.
One would have bet then that speculation and rumors and conspiracy theories would have long since been settled by 2017.
