The nationwide' manhunt continues. The FBI issued a conspiracy warrant Wednesday for Galt, then updated their case Friday by saying a fingerprint comparison showed 'Galt was really Ray. The naming of Ray in the case caused confusion, primarily because, earlier official stateindicate that Galt and Ray were in different places at the same time. When Galt was charged as a conspirator in King's death by rifle bullet, the FBI said the man had taken dancing lessons in New Orleans in 1964-65. The FBI said later the earlier description should have said Galt reportedly took dancing lessons rather than stating it flatly.
