• A year after his conviction, in March 1965, Ruby
  conducted a brief televised news conference in
  which he stated "Everything pertaining to what's
  happening has never come to the surface. The
  world will never know the true facts of what
  occurred, my motives. The people who had so much
  to gain, and had such an ulterior motive for
  putting me in the position I'm in, will never let
  the true facts come above board to the world."
  When asked by a reporter "Are these people in
  very high positions Jack?" he responded
  "Yes."Dallas Deputy Sheriff Al Maddox claimed
  "Ruby told me, he said, 'Well, they injected me
  for a cold.' He said it was cancer cells. That's
  what he told me, Ruby did. I said you don't
  believe that ____. He said, 'I damn sure do!'
  Then one day when I started to leave, Ruby
  shook hands with me and I could feel a piece of
  paper in his palm.... In this note he said it
  was a conspiracy and he said ... if you will keep
  your eyes open and your mouth shut, you're gonna
  learn a lot. And that was the last letter I ever
  got from him."
• Not long before Ruby died, according to an
  article in the London Sunday Times, he told
  psychiatrist Werner Teuter, that the
  assassination was "an act of overthrowing the
  government" and that he knew "who had President
  Kennedy killed." He added "I am doomed. I do not
  want to die. But I am not insane. I was framed to
  kill Oswald."Eventually, the appellate court
  agreed with Ruby's lawyers for a new trial, and
  on October 5, 1966, ruled that his motion for a
  change of venue before the original trial court
  should have been granted. Ruby's conviction and
  death sentence were overturned. Arrangements were
  underway for a new trial to be held in February
  1967, in Wichita Falls, Texas, when, on December
  9, 1966, Ruby was admitted to Parkland Hospital
  in Dallas, suffering from pneumonia. A day later,
  doctors realized he had cancer in his liver,
  lungs, and brain.
• Ruby made a final statement from his hospital bed
  on December 19 that he and he alone had been
  responsible for the murder of Lee Harvey
  Oswald."There is nothing to hide," Ruby said.
  "There was no one else."
