"The special draws on an array of historians, investigators and eyewitness accounts, including interviews with author Lamar Waldron and former Secret Service agent Abraham Bolden who claims an aborted attempt on the President's life in Chicago early in November was covered up. What was the real Ruby/Oswald connection? With precision and a meticulous level of detail, the producers of JFK: THE RUBY CONNECTION, airing at 9 PM (ET/PT) sets out to answer this by recreating and restaging the November 24th shooting of Oswald. They return to the actual Dallas police station garage where Ruby shot Oswald on live television, using the same vintage cameras and lights and the exact camera positions . . ."
