Martin Luther King had love child, bedded Joan Baez – JFK files

A newly declassified FBI dossier on the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. alleges the civil rights leader had a possible lovechild and once bedded folk singer Joan Baez.

The scandalous 20-page report – included in the latest document dump of files related to the JFK assassination – says that “a responsible Los Angeles individual” informed an agent that King had an affair with the wife of a prominent black dentist and may have fathered a baby girl.

The individual, who was a relative of King’s paramour and had known the reverend since 1960, also accused him of having affairs with three other women, including Baez.

The dossier also alleges that King had a proclivity for orgies – and that the frisky revelries even took place at workshops where he was training ministers in urban leadership.

At a Miami conference in February 1968, a minister who attended “expressed his disgust with the behind-the-scene drinking, fornication, and homosexuality that went on.”

“Throughout the ensuing years and until this date King has continued to carry on his sexual aberrations secretly while holding himself out to the public view as a moral leader of religious conviction,” the report says.
