Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord.? 8. Mem bers of King?s fam ily did not believe Jam es Earl Ray act ed alone. Ray, a career criminal, pled guilty to King?s assassination but later recanted. King?s son Dexter met publicly with Ray in 1997 and argued for the case to be reopened. King?s widow, Coretta, believed the Mafia and local, state and federal government agencies were deeply involved in the murder. She praised the result of a 1999 civil trial in which a Memphis jury decided the assassination was the result of a conspiracy and that Ray was set up to take the blame. A U.S. Department of Justice investigation released in 2000 reported no evidence of a conspiracy. 9. King?s m ot her w as also slain by a bullet . On June 30, 1974, as 69-year-old Alberta Williams King played the organ at a Sunday service inside Ebenezer Baptist Church, Marcus Wayne Chenault Jr. rose from the front pew, drew two pistols and began to fire shots. One of the bullets struck and killed King, who died steps from where her son had preached nonviolence. The deranged gunman said that Christians were his enemy and that although he had received divine instructions to kill King?s father, who was in the congregation, he killed King?s mother instead because she was closer. The shooting also left a church deacon dead.
Chenault received a death penalty sentence that was later changed to life imprisonment, in part due to the King family?s opposition to capital punishment. 10. George Washingt on is t he only ot her Am erican t o have had his birt hday observed as a nat ional holiday. In 1983 President Ronald Reagan signed a bill that created a federal holiday to honor King. The holiday, first commemorated in 1986, is celebrated on the third Monday in January, close to the civil rights leader?s January 15 birthday.
