Ruby retrial sought as three man court orders reversal
The case returns to a county other than Dallas where Ruby was tried. The three man court held the trial court erred by admitting police testimony of conversations with Ruby after the killing. A policeman testified Ruby said he had seen Oswald and would kill him on sight, an oral confession of premeditation while in custody. The admission was prejudicial and requires reversal of conviction. Ruby was convicted in March.
