The MLK suicide letter is a Scandal that has plagued the FBI since the 70s and the story is as backward, twisted, and sickening as the name implies. While Martin Luther King Jr. was flawed as we all are he moved America forward more than almost any other public figure in the 20th century. The FBI allegedly sent MLK a letter and an audiotape that can be at best a warning to back down from his goal of social reforms and at worst a demand that King ends his own life. This twisted move would cause any man’s stomach to turn, but unfortunately, this is not the lowest point for the FBI.
