The Warren Commission (WC) claimed that Jack Ruby was a lone nut and that he killed another lone nut, Lee Harvey Oswald (LHO), all by himself with no help. They also said he had NO ties to organize crime. They really should have read the evidence in their own twenty-six volumes before making comments like this.
**************************************
The undisputed alleged crime boss of Dallas was Joseph Campisi. True, he had to report to Carlos Marcello who was the man in charge of the Texas mob overall, but in the city of Dallas Campisi was the one that supposedly ran things. On November 25, 1963, the FBI interviewed him about his knowledge of Jack Ruby. Campisi was listed as the owner of the Egyptian Lounge in Dallas. This interview became known as Commission Exhibit (CE) 1748.

He said that he knew Jack Ruby since 1949 when Ruby ran the Silver Spur Club in Dallas. He said Ruby was a “very high-strung” person and would resort to using his fists at a “drop of the hat.” Basically, he could become violent. Campisi went on to describe Ruby as “one hell of a hustler who would do anything to earn a buck.” We also learn that Campisi’s partner in the Egyptian Club is none other than Ralph Paul and we know Ruby had ties to him. How could the WC claim Ruby had NO ties to the mob when he was friends with a man who was very close to the alleged mob boss of Dallas?
He went on to say that Ruby “operated out of his hip pocket” meaning that Ruby carried a large sum of cash around and paid his bills with this money. This would explain the nice sum he had on him when he was arrested after shooting LHO. He would say this about Ruby’s ties to the Dallas Police Department (DPD) in this interview.

Campisi stated that Ruby had a practice of becoming acquainted with all police officers and he, Ruby, would cooperate with the police in the operation of his night club. Campisi stated that Ruby did this for his own protection as police officers would, at Ruby’s request and cooperation, keep undesirable characters and prostitutes out of Ruby’s club. Police officers would also advise Ruby whenever he would hire a girl to work as a stripper who also had a record for prostitution. Campisi was of the opinion Ruby GAINED ENTRANCE to the City Hall basement on November 24, 1963, through this friendship and knowledge of numerous Dallas police officers. (CE 1748, p. 357)

Of course Campisi’s opinion carried weight since he would know about this stuff given his position and long-standing relationship with Sheriff Bill Decker. He would also be corroborated by none other than the District Attorney for Dallas—Henry Wade. He would say this during his WC testimony.
Mr. DULLES. Who was it that called you?
Mr. WADE. The inspector at FBI called me in the police station. He was the one the police had talked to. He was the man from Dallas down there. It wasn't Shanklin, Shanklin was in charge of the office.
But I told him what my purpose was but apparently someone told him gathered since he had delivered a message, apparently someone had told him to have me quit talking about it. But my purpose on that was, I never did think that the people or the television were giving the right facts on the thing and they were making believe that probably they didn't have the right one, that the Dallas police had him in there to kill him, they even had commentators saying practically that, don't you know.
So, I did that entirely--not anything for me. You may think I wanted to be on television. I didn't care a thing about being because I don't run for office in New York and Washington and. other places, but I thought the police needed, because their morale was awfully low and they were at fault in Ruby killing him.
There was undoubtedly a breakdown on security there in the basement.
Was there a “breakdown” or was it allowed to happen? Remember, we saw this comment from New York Times reporter Gladwin Hill previously in another post regarding the security in the basement of City Hall.

The next morning, Sunday, November 24, 1963, Alexander entered City Hall, Dallas, at 7:30 a.m. He immediately went to the basement. He does not recall if he entered the basement by walking down the ramp or if he entered the building on the main floor and took an elevator to the basement. No one asked for HIS IDENTIFICATION and business appeared to be going on as usual in the basement. (CE 2037, p. 451) (Emphasis added)

No one was being checked so anyone could have gotten in. So no matter how you look at this Wade is right in saying they were at fault in the murder of LHO. Why would they want to lose such an important suspect though? Obviously from the conspiracy side it is quite clear as they did NOT want any trial. Wade would say how the evidence was worthless now that LHO was dead too (it was worthless from the beginning, but at least with LHO dead they didn’t have to worry about using it).
Mr. RANKIN. When was this now?
Mr. WADE. This was 8 o'clock roughly on the 24th, Sunday night. I sat down with Captain Fritz and took a pencil and pad and listed about seven pieces of evidence from my own knowledge and I was going to write it down. They got hold of Chief Curry and he said no, that he had told this inspector of the FBI that there would be nothing further said about it.
I asked Chief Batchelor and Lumpkin, they were all there, I said you all are the ones who know something about it, I said if you have at least got the right man in my opinion the American people ought to know.
This is evidence you can't use actually, because he is dead. You can't try him. And the upshot of that was the police wouldn't say a word and refused actually to furnish me any more of the details on this.
I mean what the seven points. I went on out there in from front of the cameras and ran them through those points. Actually my purpose in it was, good or bad was, because the Dallas police were taking a beating because they had solved the crime and had good evidence and I told them it was good but I did leave out some things and I was a little inaccurate in one or two things but it was because of the communications with the police.
I didn't have the map, incidentally. I wanted the map at that time but forgot all about it, and I ran through just what I knew, which probably was worse than nothing.
It probably would have been better off without giving anything, because we didn't give what all we had.
Why would the DPD take a beating for solving the case? Does this make any sense to you? The evidence would not be needed now as LHO was gunned down while being surrounded by 70-75 police officers. Of course there was compliance by someone or some on the DPD as there is NO other way Ruby could have done this otherwise.
