~~~Quote: "I have been used for a purpose, and there will be a certain tragic occurrence happening if you don't take my testimony and somehow vindicate me so my people don't suffer because of what I have done", unquote, US gangster Jack Leon Ruby, (b. 'Jacob Rubenstein', March 25, 1911-January 3, 1967)-on assassinating Lee Harvey Oswald because he allegedly assassinated JFK~~~
I
While Oswald was taken into custody by Dallas Police in handcuffs, the flash of Texas media cameras flashing in their faces...out of the corner of darkness, Jack Ruby fired several shots into Oswald's chest. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
And, as Oswald's body lurched forward, he died instantly...as blood spilled down his chest...and into the ground...and the violence of the 1960's continued.

And then Walter Cronkite spoke to the CBS news:
Quote: "From our CBS newsroom in New York, a bulletin. Lee Harvey Oswald...the man who Dallas police say killed President Kennedy, himself...is dead. He was cut down by a single bullet, an hour and fifteen minutes before he died in Parkland Hospital in a room just ten feet from that room where President Kennedy died. He was being taken from the Dallas City Jail to the Dallas County Jail but in the basement of the Dallas City Jail...before he left that building...he was shot. The man Dallas police seized at the scene...and are holding has been identified as Jack Rubenstein...known in Dallas as Jack Ruby...a man who years ago moved to Dallas from Chicago..and was operating two nightclubs...and well-known nightclubs...in Dallas. He is fifty-two years old; balding; with black hair. He is being held by the Dallas police..who say they will charge him with the murder of Lee Harvey Oswald. Now back to Washington", unquote.
