Subsequently, the New York Times obtained another FBI document, quoting Byers as saying that Kauffmann later made the payoff to the actual assassin, James Earl Ray, who is now serving a 99-year term for the murder...
...hunt down Kennedy in Texas. He found his job in the Texas School Book Depository building by chance, and long before it was known that Kennedy planned to ride in a motorcade past the building. If the killing actually was planned by foreign agents, Oswald was the luckiest assassin in history. It is far more likely that he saw his unexpected opportunity-and took...
