Rumors of Oswald Ruby Walker link debunked by Warren report
The Warren Commission concluded no link between Lee Harvey Oswald, Jack Ruby, and Maj. Gen. Edwin Walker. Investigations found a fabricated German newspaper statement and no evidence tying the trio to the Walker attack or Kennedy assassination. Oswald had studied Walker's neighborhood, planned the attack, and discussed Nixon as a potential target, but no conspiracy was proven.
