  • Andrew Young was an aide to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and was there when the civil rights icon was killed. April 4 marks 50 years since the tragedy and those who witnessed it say it is still fresh in their memories. A college student at the time, Clara Ester was at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis that night and heard the shot. The physician who received King at the hospital also remembers the extent of his wounds. InsideEdition.com's Mara Montalbano ( / maramontalbano ) has more. #InsideEdition

    My high school history teacher was there when MLK gave his “I have a dream” speech. He was 13 then and every time Mr. Gammer watched a recording he would break down in tears.

      Sarah Chambers The speech was said in 1963 and he was 13 so he was born in 1950, which makes him 68 now in 2018. I am a nerd I know.

      Not to argue, but perhaps not. As sad as it is, when doctors saw his heart, they say that despite being 39, he had the heart of a man in his 60s due to stress. I believe if he was not assassinated, his heart would have given out later down the line.
