Summary  
The documents detail FBI investigations into James Earl Ray’s movements and activities between 1967 and 1968, linked to the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. Key findings include Ray’s employment history as a bus boy at Yosemite National Park, connections to Houston, Little Rock, Arkansas, Sacramento, California, and Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri. The FBI sought information on Ray’s social security number (redacted) and coordinated with local authorities in those states to verify his whereabouts. Investigations included fingerprint comparisons with unidentified deceased individuals, inquiries into potential ties to unsolved crimes, and tracking telephone records tied to Ray’s alleged travel between Texas, Mexico, and other U.S. locations. A $100,000 reward was offered for information leading to Ray’s arrest. The FBI also pursued leads on Joe M. Beans, an individual arrested in Kearney, Nebraska, who was described as resembling Ray but showed no match in NCIC records. Additional efforts focused on Robert Dale Porter, whose location was sought through contacts in Oklahoma City and Jefferson City. Ray’s alleged associations with prostitutes, street bums, and a photograph obtained from a Mexican prostitute were noted.
