Mary Pinchot Meyers was the ex wire of Cord Meyer, a cia wheel who hated JFK because he was banging his wife and named by Hunt as one of JFK's hit team. Mary was involved with JFK and had many secrets he shared with her, and expressed a desire to reopen the case to friends. Her sister was married to Ben Bradley of the Washington Post and asshole buddy to Jim Angleton. She was murdered on the canal toe path in DC in 1965. A local black man was brought forth as the scapegoat and was obviously being framed for the assassination, when Roundtree stepped up to provide him a defense when none was forthcoming. She stepped up in the face of incredible obstacles, and if you were alive in 1965 you may have some context into what she accomplished. This was a true hero for her time, unlike the race pimps we hold dear today. Dovey Johnson Roundtree, Barrier-Breaking Lawyer, Dies at 104 (Published 2018)
