In this chilling twenty-seventh installment of our Jack Ruby miniseries, we step inside Cell 6F2 of the Dallas County Jail on Sunday, April 26, 1964, just six weeks after Jack Ruby was sentenced to die in the electric chair. Following a frantic, desperate suicide attempt the previous night where Ruby smashed his head into his cell wall and tried to fashion a noose, a renowned psychiatrist arrived to conduct a series of closed-door examinations. That psychiatrist was Dr. Lewis Jolyon "Jolly" W...
In this gripping twenty-eighth installment of our Jack Ruby miniseries, we finish out the two part story tell of Jolly West. We revisit the infamous late-night meeting on Saturday, November 23, 1963, at Simon's Garage between Jack Ruby, off-duty Dallas patrolman Harry Olsen, and Carousel stripper Kathy Kay (K. Helen Coleman). We contrast Jack Ruby’s later jailhouse claims—that Olsen explicitly prompted him to kill Oswald to save the Kennedy family further grief—with Olsen and Kay's flat denia...
Sorry for this weeks delay. I am getting over a cold and wanted to give you a bit of an update. Episodes coming on Sunday (I hope). Enjoy! Jeff
In this twenty-sixth installment of our Jack Ruby miniseries, we step inside the legal pressure cooker following the November 24 shooting of Lee Harvey Oswald and dissect the clash of defense strategies that defined Jack Ruby’s capital murder trial. We trace the initial strategy devised by local Dallas attorney Tom Howard, who aimed for a "murder without malice" defense under Texas law—an approach that framed Ruby as a grief-stricken, volatile nightclub owner acting out of sudden passion to s...
In this compelling twenty-fifth installment of our Jack Ruby miniseries, we step inside Apartment 207 at the Marsalis Place Apartments on South Ewing Street during the turbulent afternoon and evening of Sunday, November 24, 1963. Hours after Jack Ruby executed Lee Harvey Oswald live on national television, Dallas detectives searched the residence under warrant, discovering over $3,100 in cash scattered between bedroom cloth sacks, living room closets, Ruby's pockets, and his white Oldsmobile ...
In this twenty-fourth installment of our Jack Ruby miniseries, we reconstruct the immediate, chaotic aftermath of Sunday morning, November 24, 1963, when Jack Ruby stepped from a crowd of journalists in the Dallas Police Department basement and shot Lee Harvey Oswald live on national television. We explore the instant, bitter fracture in public perception: while hundreds of sympathetic citizens sent telegrams and defense contributions praising Ruby as a grief-stricken patriot who spared...
In this twenty-third installment of our Jack Ruby miniseries, we revisit Jack Ruby’s infamous summer 1959 trip to Cuba and unravel the paper trail that shatters sixty years of official cover stories. For decades, the Warren Commission portrayed Ruby's presence in Havana as an innocent, week-long vacation, backed by a single postcard sent to his girlfriend Alice Nichols from the FOCSA building. However, official Cuban immigration tourist cards and federal archives expose a massive ...
In this gripping twenty-second installment of our Jack Ruby miniseries, we look past the convenient post-assassination caricature of Jack Ruby as a pathetic, lonely "police buff" who brought free pizza to headquarters. Instead, we peel back the layers of the Dallas Police Department and FBI files to expose a highly calculating, double-shielded operator who survived on the very edge of the law for sixteen years. We reconstruct the shadowy 1953-1955 gambling hustle Jack ran alongside swindler H...
