Summary  
The FBI conducted extensive investigations into James Earl Ray’s movements and associations following his escape from prison in 1968, focusing on his potential involvement in the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. Documents detail Ray’s alleged connections to inmates at Missouri State Penitentiary and San Quentin Prison, including Kenneth Lee Wade, Bobby Burns, and Glen Shurink, who described Ray as a quiet individual with no known family or external contacts while incarcerated. The FBI tracked Ray’s possible travel routes via Greyhound bus from San Francisco to Portland, Oregon, and sought information on his associates, including potential links to drug trafficking activities within prison systems. Efforts included verifying Ray’s identity through employment records, personnel files at Boeing facilities in Houston, Texas, and coordination with local law enforcement in Seattle, Memphis, and other locations. The FBI released photographs of Ray to media outlets for public identification and examined phone records, insurance claims, and witness statements to corroborate sightings or connections. Investigations also explored potential look-alikes, such as Robert W. Buckley, a Boeing employee in Seattle, and Mrs. Roger L. Miller, a Memphis resident with name similarities to Ray.
