On November 24, 1963, Ruby shot and killed Lee Harvey Oswald, the man who (according to four government investigations)^[2] assassinated President John F. Kennedy. A Dallas jury found Ruby guilty of murdering Oswald, and Ruby was sentenced to death. Later, Ruby appealed his conviction and death sentence and was granted a new trial.
