JFK murder 'transcript' unveiled

Officials in Dallas, Texas, have unveiled the purported transcript of a conversation between US President John F Kennedy's assassin and another man.

The transcript records an alleged conversation between assassin Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby, who killed Oswald before he could face trial.

The two men discuss a plot to kill the president a month before his 22 November 1963 murder in Dallas.

A Dallas official said he did not know whether the transcript was genuine.

One theory is that the transcript is a fake - part of a movie script that Mr Wade was working on.

In the transcript, Oswald and Ruby discuss a way to "get rid of" US Attorney General Robert Kennedy - JFK's brother - by killing the president.

Robert Kennedy was launching a crackdown on the mafia in the US at the time.

An investigation into the Kennedy assassination concluded that Oswald probably acted alone.
