FYI   How many reporters who spoke with Jack Ruby ended up dead? Reports vary on the exact number of journalists who interviewed Jack Ruby and later died, and the circumstances of their deaths are sometimes disputed. However, some prominent cases often cited include: Jim Koethe: A journalist for the Dallas Times Herald who interviewed Ruby and was planning to write a book about the case. He died on April 23, 1964, allegedly from a karate chop to the neck.

 Bill Hunter: Another journalist who interviewed Ruby. He reportedly died the same day as Jim Koethe, April 23, 1964, from the accidental discharge of a weapon in a police station.

 Dorothy Kilgallen: A crime reporter for the New York Journal. She secured a private interview with Jack Ruby during his trial. Kilgallen died in November 1965, with the official cause of death ruled as an accidental overdose of alcohol and barbiturates

. It is important to note that these deaths have fueled numerous conspiracy theories, with some claiming they were murdered due to their knowledge or investigation of the JFK assassination and Jack Ruby's role in it. However, official investigations have attributed their deaths to other causes, and the veracity of claims related to their alleged murders remains controversial.
