Aaron Good and Max Arvo interrogate the absurdly suspicious life and times of Jack Ruby—the "pimp for all seasons" who assassinated Lee Oswald, the most politically important prisoner in US history. Over the years, many people have come to find it suspicious that a mob-connected figure could murder Oswald in a room full of armed policemen whose one job at the time was to effect an orderly transfer of prisoner Lee Oswald.
Rather than looking exhaustively at the assassination here, we explore what Ruby represents. From that, we may discern why the plotters would have utilized someone like Ruby--given that he was situated within so many sensitive parapolitical networks within the American deep political system.
Special thanks Dana Chavarria for the sound engineering and to Casey Moore for the episode art!
