The assassination of John F. Kennedy stunned the world, but what followed two days later seemed even more incredible. Kennedy’s assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, was assassinated on live television by Jack Ruby. Yet, his trial remains mostly forgotten.

In Kennedy's Avenger (2021), Dan Abrams and David Fisher explore Ruby’s long and tedious trial. They detail the meticulous process through which both prosecutors and defenders had to work. Through a long-winded series of testimonies, objections, cross-examinations, rebuttals, and appeals, and amid scrutiny and conspiracy theories fueled by the media, the trial of Jack Ruby shook the core of the American judicial system and put the entirety of Dallas on trial.
