On April 4, 1968 James Earl Ray killed Dr. Martin Luther King in Memphis, Tennessee. Then Ray evades an international manhunt for more than two months, and then he was busted by Scotland Yard. He skips having a trial because his attorney tells him to just plead guilty. The theory that best fits this crime is "Labeling and Conflict theory".

The relationship between Socrates and Martin Luther King The similarities between Martin Luther King and Socrates are so close that it's hard to imagine that either could have come up with their ideas alone.
