It is an old story. I first heard it in the 60s.





Both assassins were known by their three names.


All criminals are known by 3 names if they have them.
It helps avoid misidentification.

I am also not sure how they say Booth was assassinated unless you
think the Union army were assassins. He was shot in a barn by union
soldiers.


The soldier who shot him was known as "Ruby Jack."
