99: Devil in the Details
Percy Foreman, James Earl Ray and the $125,000 Briefcase
John Currington recounts delivering a briefcase containing $125,000 in cash to attorney Percy Foreman in Houston. The money was allegedly provided by H.L. Hunt to ensure that James Earl Ray, the accused killer of Martin Luther King Jr., would plead guilty. This maneuver was intended to prevent a trial where Ray might testify about who actually orchestrated the assassination.
