This is How Master of DeceitMaster of Deceit Begins
• FACT: In November of 1964, a rogue arm of the United States government set out to blackmail Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. into killing himself.
• FACT: That secret cell was called the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the lead plotters were J. Edgar Hoover “boss” of the FBI and assistant director William Sullivan – who hoped to become the next head of the organization.
• THE STORY: • On November 24, an FBI agent boarded an airplane from
Washington to Miami in order to mail a package. The box held audio tapes and an anonymous letter – probably written by Sullivan. “King,” the letter warned, “there is only one thing left for you to do. You know what it is….You are done. There is but one way out for you. You better take it before your filthy, abnormal, fraudulent self is bared to the nation.” Dr. King believed the letter was telling him to commit suicide.
