For the last six years of his life, King underwent constant wiretapping and harassment by the FBI. Before his death, Dr. King was also monitored by U.S. military intelligence, which may have been asked to watch King after he publicly denounced the Vietnam War in 1967. Furthermore, by calling for radical economic reforms in 1968, including guaranteed annual incomes for all, King was making few new friends in the Cold War-era U.S. government.

James Earl Ray appears to have been an arch manipulator of the media, putting out so many stories, first admitting to the crime and then issuing various denials that he ended up putting up a smokescreen that hid the truth. Mark David Chapman in some ways has done the same thing about the Lennon assassination.

“All the information published in our literature has come from a lengthy public consultation where the people of Liverpool were asked to tell their stories about the city. This was then verified by local historians.”
The verification process left something to be desired. And why anyway would local historians know better than historians who had actually studied the career of Martin Luther King? Sounds like they are trying to paper over their error.
