Knoxville News-Sentinel

12 November 1978
MEMPHIS --A notarized statement by Daniel Ellsberg, released to The News-Sentinel Saturday night by James Earl Ray's attorney, Mark Lane, states flatly that an aide to UN Ambassador Andrew Young told Ellsberg, "We know there was a conspiracy (to kill Dr. Martin Luther King) and we know who did it."
Ellsberg's affidavit claims he was told there was definitely FBI involvement in the murder.
Lane said the 44-page affidavit by Ellsberg, who gained worldwide attention by leaking the now-famed Pentagon Papers secrets, will be one of the chief pieces of evidence used in seeking a new trial for Ray.
The completed text of the affidavit was signed and notarized in San Francisco Oct. 20.
In the statement, Ellsberg tells of a conversation he had with ,y~on Brady, the young aide, in June. I-M .said Tyson tokl Brady the conspiratms included a group of off-duty and retired FBI officers w0rking under the directin of J. Edgar Hoover, who was head of the, FBI in 19 when Dr. King was shot to death m Memphis.
Ellsberg's statement says that Tyson told him it is believed that the group had a "sharp-shooter who actually did the shooting. To hear this presentation, as an absolute fact from someone in the U.S. government was startling.
Lane also had a statement he said was made by Rev. James Lawson, a Los Angeles minister who married James Earl Ray and Knoxville free-lance artist Anna Sandhu last month. Ray is serving a 99year prison sentence for the slaying of Dr. King. However, the statement was 'not signed by Rev. Lawson. Lane said Lawson is sending him a similar, notorized statement.
The affidavit from Ellsberg said that Tyson claimed to have knowledge of the King murder through conversations with Rep. Walter Fauntroy, 'chairman of the House Assassination~ Committee. He said told him investigators believe they the names.
Ellesberg was reported to be in Colorado Saturday night and could not be for comment. Ellesberg said he assumed the information would come out at U.S. House Select Committee on Assassinations hearings on Dr. King's shooting, and that when it didn't he approached Lane.
In another development Saturday night, Michael Eberhardt, the house committee's assistant chief deputy counsel, resigned to show his dissatisfaction with the panel'a decision not to recall Ray.
Lane also said he will have additional affidavits soon, including one in which Rep. Fauntroy contends he was approached by CIA agents, who told him they would help provide him information about the FBI involvement in the King death if Rep. Fauntroy would promise not to delve into the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
Tyson, reached at his New York City residence, said, "I will deny under oath that I said I knew who did It."
He said he was speculatingwtth Ellsberg on who might have killed King and expressed his personal theory that the FBI conducted the assassination.
He said he has had a "couple of conversations with Walter (Fauntroy)" about the House assassination investigation. However, he said nothing specific was discussed.
He said he has heard that Fauntray's life has been threatened, but did not gain the information from Fauntroy. He said that he and others believe that the possible FBI involvement in King's death needs further investigation.

Jesse Jackson was the FBI informant who got MLK to step out on the balcony for the kill shot.
Ray did not get a new trial in Tennessee since his appellate judges had the bad habit of dropping dead in their chambers.

Yes, yes, we know. And the smoking man from X-Files was the real killer of JFK.

I can always tell your posts. They crack me up but I get it dude I know where your coming from. MLK wasn't so bad. Alot blacks working today. Don't have to. I liked Hoffa and Nixon. They dealt with crooked people and knew how to handle them. Now the Kennedys I can't stand them. All 3 die in the 60s, that ain't coincidence. RFK is the problem he uncovers Onasis's ships being under flagged with Saudia insignia during the McCarthy investigation as Roy Cohn's aid. The ships where sending crude to Red China for the North Koreans against are boys in the war. Onasis is not allowed in the US under JFK. Hoffa under indictment. LBJ won the primary stolen by old Joe Kennedy. LBJ gets his job back, Onasis gets Jackie and her sister, and the mob gets their loans from Hoffa everybodys happy. No mystery. Now that black is stiring up some stuff let Joseph Peltier handle it. Its all tied together. Just find a patsy. PN would be a good one. And Roy Cohn had pictures of Hoover from the twenties in drag. Cohn a mob lawyer.

" Many of the ugly pages of American history have been obscured and forgotten....America owes a debt of justice which it has only begun to pay.
If it loses the will to finish or slackens in its determination, history will recall its crimes and the country that would be great will lack the most indispensable element of greatness--justice " -- Martin Luther King , Jr. 1967
