Juanita Dale Slusher's Birthday |
||||
|
Candy was eventually convicted on the marijuana charges and spent three years in jail . After her release, she became closer to Dallas nightclub owner Jack Ruby in telephone conversations. Twelve hours after Lee Harvey Oswald was murdered by Ruby, the FBI arrived in Edna to interview Barr. She made a statement, as Juanita Dale Phillips, regarding her knowledge of Ruby prior to the JFK assassination and Ruby's subsequent murder of Oswald. It was rumored that she knew more than she told them, but she later said, "They thought Ruby had told me names and places and people, which he didn't." The Texas Governor, John Connally, pardoned her for the marijuana conviction in late 1967. Candy briefly returned to stripping in the late 1960s, posed for Oui magazine in the 1970s, and then retired.
So let's commemorate Candy's birthday with some Candy Bar Brownies made with
her favorite Snickers bars and catch a glimpse of her in a short clip from Smart Alec
in
A History of the Blue Movie
(1970). |
