Summary:  
The document contains fragmented information related to an investigation into the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. (MLK).

He was last seen in Ruidoso by his former wife, Artie, and claimed to be traveling from Loveit, Texas, to Phoenix, Arizona. A contact named Dollar reportedly phoned Artie to verify resemblance. The text also includes FBI records mentioning Edgar Ray Killen, a defendant with multiple sons (Roy Gene, Donald, Bobby, Dorald, Jerry), whose ages and locations are detailed. Interviews with Killen and his relatives denied any involvement in MLK's murder.
