Jowers was charged in 1998 with involvement in the MLK assassination. Jowers' own layer did not deny that his client was involved in the conspiracy to kill King. He said he agreed with 80 percent of William Pepper's evidence and disagreed only on the extent of his client's involvement. In his closing speech of the civil trial, Mr. Garrison repeated his claim that Jowers had participated in the conspiracy, but was unaware that the plot was intended to kill Dr. King. He was found guilty by a unanimous jury verdict.
