Summary:  
The document includes correspondence and fragmented records related to assassination investigations and political responses in 1968. Dr. Elizabeth C. Boukas wrote to Gerald R. Ford on July 5, 1968, advocating for a federal commission to investigate potential connections between the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy (1963), Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (1968), and Senator Robert F. Kennedy (1968). She emphasized lingering doubts about the circumstances surrounding these events. A separate letter from Britton L. Gordon referenced legal proceedings involving James Ray, an individual linked to the RFK assassination investigation, noting concerns about his trial and safety. The text also contains disjointed congressional debate fragments referencing Martin Luther King Jr., including discussions of his legacy and alleged ties to violence.
