(WETM-TV) – New allegations emerge about the murder of civil rights leader Malcolm X.
In a press conference on Saturday, Malcolm X’s family, along with civil rights attorney Ben Crump, unveiled a letter detailing what had happened and who was involved days before Malcolm X’s murder.
In the letter from the former undercover NYPD, Raymond Wood said before his death that the NYPD and the FBI were behind the attack.
According to Wood’s letter, he was pressured by his superiors to lure two members of Malcolm X’s security team into crimes they had arrested two days before the shooting.
Wood claimed her arrests prevented her from keeping the doors safe at the Audubon Ballroom in NYC, where Malcolm X was killed.
Attorney Crump plans to have the letter assessed to cement the truth behind the murder.
We clearly intend that the Manhattan District Attorney and any other agency, be it the United States Congress, can evaluate this letter and use it as crucial evidence in exonerating these unjustly condemned blacks by their administration.
Ben Crump, civil rights attorney
The civil rights activist was murdered in 1965 while preparing to give a speech. Three members of the Nation of Islam were convicted in the shooting.
