Plausible conclusions. Did Jack Rubinstein/Ruby, former Chicago Mob associate, take out Oswald due to the embarassment he would cause by his testimony at the trial?

Yes, it would have been pretty embarrassing to a number of people for Oswald to tell his story. The mere fact of having considered his offer would not look good, especially if you had rejected it on empirical rather than moral grounds--i.e., you thought Oswald would screw up and miss.
