When he killed Oswald thats what started all the conspiracy theories. He was at western union minutes before he shot Oswald. He mailed some money to one of his strippers. He had his dog with him in the car. The western union was near the police station. He saw a lot of commotion at the police station. He left his dog in the car and walked down into the parking garage. At that moment Oswald was led into the parking garage.

That does not sound like a planned killing. If Ruby planned to kill Oswald why would he bring his dog and leave the dog in the car?
