Now, undoubtedly, someone will respond with the comment that that is the same drug mix (sleeping pills and alcohol) that killed Marilyn Monroe - ergo, more evidence of a conspiracy!

However, sleeping pills and alcohol also killed Judy Garland, Jimi Hendrix, Brian Epstein (The Beatles manager), and Tennessee Williams - and I don't seem to recall them ever being mentioned as involved in the assassination...

Here's a question --

Assuming that there is a well planned conspiracy, and that there were people continuing to run the operation after the assassination... then why would they let a journalist interview Jack Ruby in the first place? Ruby would never have lived much past January of '64 - he'd have been found dead, hanging by a bedsheet in his cell, an apparent suicide. But instead, Kilgallen interviews Ruby, and when she threatens to break the case wide open, she is murdered.

Think people, THINK! You don't let journalists interview witnesses and then murder them - you never allow the interview to happen in the first place! Either you deny access to the subject of the interview, or else you eliminate the subject before s/he can be interviewed.

In other words - you avoid having to clean up the mess, because you never let the mess happen!

When Frank Sanatra died Dorothy was the First Person in Heaven to give him a Hug & Big Wet Kiss...

She interviewed him because she was resourceful, that's why.

She got the interview with Ruby while he was in jail because she was resourceful. The government allowed the interview because they had nothing to hide.

See the difference?

Hugh Aynesworth, who covered the Ruby Trial along with Dorothy Killgallen recalled Killgallen's " Private Interview " as being no more than several minutes during a recess in the trial while surrounded by reporters. Killgallens main source of information on the JFK assassination came from Mark Lane, ya think he would have been bumped off!
