On This Day November 24

The first live televised murder occurred on November 24, 1963, when Jack Ruby killed President John Kennedy's alleged assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. As Oswald was being transported from the Dallas Police Department to the county jail, Ruby lunged from the crowd and shot Oswald in the abdomen. Oswald was rushed to Parkland Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 1:00 p.m. CST.

The shooting of Oswald was broadcast live on television by NBC, and it was seen by millions of Americans across the country. The event was a shocking and traumatic one for many people, and it raised questions about the role of violence in American society.
