Massey freed after first admission in Ford assassination plot
In Jacksonville John Clayton Massey told agents he had been recruited to kill President Ford. The FBI released him to arrange a second polygraph test, and he was later jailed on a conspiracy charge after calling to refuse the test. He sits at $100,000 bond. In Toledo prosecutors for Rhodes and 28 defendants in the Kent State civil damages trial oppose reopening the case. They argue Judge Young adequately addressed trial errors.
