I te Poutu-te-rangi 18, 1968, ka wehe atu a Ray i Los Angeles ka tiimata te taraiwa whakawhiti-whenua ki Atlanta, Georgia. I te taenga atu ki Atlanta i te Poutu-te-rangi 24, 1968, ka tirohia e Ray ki tetahi whare noho. I hokona e ia he mahere o te taone. I kitea e ngā māngai FBI i muri mai tēnei mahere i a rātou e rapu ana i te ruma i noho ai ia ki Atlanta. I runga i te mahere, kua karapotia nga waahi o te hahi me te nohoanga o Martin Luther King Jr. I tere ano a Ray i runga i te rori ka taraiwa i tana Mustang ki Birmingham, Alabama. I reira, i te Poutu-te-rangi 30, 1968, i hokona e ia he Remington Tauira 760 Gamemaster.30-06-kaliber rifle me te pouaka o nga potae 20 mai i te Aeromarine Supply Company. I hokona ano e ia tetahi awheawhe Redfield 2x-7x, i whakauruhia e ia ki te pu. I korerotia e ia ki nga kaipupuri toa e haere ana ia ki te haere hīkoi me tana tuakana. I haere tonu a Ray ki te whakamahi i te ingoa Galt i muri i tana mahi i Mexico, engari i a ia e hoko ana i tenei hoko, i hoatu e ia tona ingoa ko Harvey Lowmeyer.I muri i te hoko i te pu me nga taonga, ka hoki a Ray ki Atlanta. He kaipānui nui a Ray i te niupepa, i pau i a ia tana wa ki te pānui i te Ture o Atlanta. I pānuitia e te niupepa te hokinga mai a King ki Memphis, Tennessee, i whakaritea mō te 1 o Aperira 1968. I te 2 o Aperira, 1968, ka kohikohi a Ray i tana putea, a, ka haere ki Memphis.  Pātai: He aha te tāone i whakamahere a Ray ki te hoki ki reira?
