Thirty years after Martin Luther King Jr.’s death, his family wants President Clinton to establish a national commission to investigate the assassination.

Coretta Scott King has called for a panel similar to South Africa’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission that would provide immunity for anyone with information about the crime.

King’s family has been pushing for a trial for James Earl Ray, who is serving a 99-year prison term in Tennessee for the slaying. They say they are not convinced he acted alone, as several investigation have concluded, or even committed the crime.
