Bell says U.S. won't take Ray custody in King case
Atty. Gen. Griffin Bell announced the federal government will not assume custody of James Earl Ray, convicted in King’s assassination, despite Tennessee's request. Bell said Tennessee can continue to detain Ray, who remains under administrative segregation, while he weighs possible actions on the Helms perjury inquiry and the Korea influence probe involving Tong Sun Park.
