There are many stories of witness intimidation in regards to President John F. Kennedy’s (JFK) assassination. This is the story of Wilma Tice's brush with this intimidation.
She was the women who said she saw Jack Ruby at Parkland Hospital (PH) around the time the "magic bullet" will be "discovered." Mark Lane recounted her story in "Rush To Judgement".

Mrs. Tice would even tell the Warren Commission she had received serious, threatening telephone calls and these calls had caused her to become alarmed to the point of "not answering her phone anymore." The Warren Commission simply said "Well we want to thank you for coming" and ended the hearing as if she said she had a great time! (XV, p. 396)
Mrs. Tice would tell the FBI that she had been visited by a man claiming to be a reporter and he requested she tell him her story regarding seeing Jack Ruby at PH. The only person she had told so far was Ruby's sister, so she must have told someone who got quite nervous about this to send this fellow over to her. Once Mrs. Tice finished recounting her story the man advised her "not to talk about this anymore." (XXV, p. 218)
On July 19, 1964, Mrs. Tice told the FBI she got a letter from the Warren Commission at about 2 P.M. and around the same time she received an anonymous telephone call that resulted in the following conversation:
Mrs. Tice: Hello.
Male Caller: Mrs. Tice?
Mrs. Tice: Hello.
Male Caller: It would pay you to keep your mouth shut. (XXV, p. 225)
Two days before her appearance before the Commission counsel she received another telephone call at about 1:00 or 1:30 AM and the call awakened her. When she answered the phone the caller hung up. Within moments it rang again and again the caller hung up. She became worried and called her husband, who was at work, and the Dallas Police Department. The police found a 12-foot ladder had been "wedged against the bottom" of the door at the back of the house and that the front door "had been manipulated so that so that this door could not be opened from the inside without forcing it." (XXV, pp. 224-25)
Mrs. Tice told the FBI she believed there were links between the calls, the doors being jammed and her appearance before the Warren Commission on July 24, 1964. Many FBI reports would show a series of events that illustrated there were attempts to threaten witnesses appearing before them, but they chose to ignore this fact. Tampering with witnesses is tantamount in judicial hearings and the failure of the Warren Commission to act when they were reading of these many transgressions does not bode well for their final conclusion.
