Conspiracy theorists will love the latest find related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
A highly suspect transcript discussing a plot to kill the president is part of some JFK-related memorabilia discovered by the Dallas County District Attorney's Office.
The Dallas Morning News reported exclusively Sunday that the items were found in an old safe on the 10th floor of the county courthouse.
Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins said the discovery includes letters to and from former DA Henry Wade, the prosecutor in the Jack Ruby trial. Ruby shot and killed Kennedy assassin Lee Harvey Oswald two days after the president's death.
There are also letters to Ruby, records from his trial, a gun holster and clothing that probably belonged to Ruby and Oswald, said Watkins, who planned to discuss the find at a news conference tomorrow.
But the transcript figures to get most of the attention. The conversation is between Ruby and Oswald. They supposedly met at Ruby's nightclub on October 4th, 1963, less than two months before the assassination.
In it, they talked of killing the president because the mafia wanted to get rid of his brother, Attorney General Robert Kennedy.
Gary Mack is the curator of the Sixth Floor Museum near where the president was shot. He hasn't seen the transcript but doubts it's real. So does Terri Moore, the top assistant to Watkins.
