Malcolm Wallace served as a private in the US Marine Corps. Mark Gorton states that Mac Wallace was LBJ's "personal hit man" and "had been killing people for a decade to keep LBJ’s crimes from being exposed"[1].

Conviction

Wallace was convicted of killing John Douglas Kinser on October 22, 1951, for which he received a five-year suspended sentence.[2]

Later Employment

five months after his conviction, in 1952, Wallace was employed by Temco, Inc. of Garland, where he worked until a month after LBJ was sworn in as vice president. In February 1961 he was transferred to the Anaheim, California offices of LTV,[3] which required a background check by the US Navy. Notwithstanding his murder conviction, in 1961 Ling-Temco-Vought got him a security clearance, raising suspicions of involvement by LBJ.[2] He worked with LTV as an administrator for 15 years.

Death

The Texas Department of Public Safety reported that Wallace was killed about 7:35 p.m. Thursday, January 7, 1971, when his car ran off the road 3.5 miles south of Pittsburg, Texas on U.S. 271.
