Lane,M. Gregory,D. Murder in Memphis. 1993
Lane, Mark and Gregory, Dick. Murder in Memphis: The FBI and the
Assassination of Martin Luther King. New York: Thunder's Mouth Press,
1993. 310 pages.
This book is an updated and expanded edition of "Code Name Zorro,"
published in 1977 by Prentice-Hall. The eight chapters by Dick Gregory
concern the life and times of Martin Luther King, and the remaining 21
chapters by Mark Lane present evidence that King's assassination was the
work of a conspiracy involving federal and local officials.
Some of the territory covered by Lane includes: 1) the FBI's many
efforts to discredit King; 2) the pressures placed on James Earl Ray by his
attorney, Percy Foreman, to plead guilty; 3) the lack of physical evidence
connecting Ray to the assassination (the rifle has not been positively
matched to the bullet, for example); 4) the story of eyewitness Grace
Stephens, who said Ray wasn't the person she saw and was immediately taken
by police to a mental institution; 5) the suspicious events which caused
King to transfer to the Lorraine Motel; 6) the removal of police protection
on the day of the assassination, including the transfer of two black firemen
from the station across from the Lorraine; and 7) the curious experience of
detective Ed Redditt, who was pulled off the protection detail two hours
before the assassination under circumstances which suggested the involvement
of several federal intelligence agencies.
