Trump releases 80,000 JFK assassination files

The Trump administration made public 80,000 documents concerning the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on Tuesday evening. This move sparked excitement among amateur historians, conspiracy enthusiasts, and experts who have delved into the events of November 22, 1963, ever since that tragic day in Dallas.

It was not immediately clear whether any new information about the death of the 35th president was covered in the files — most of which appeared to relate to the initial investigation of the assassination by the Warren Commission in 1964.

That commission, helmed by Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren, concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone when he shot Kennedy with a high-powered rifle from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository, overlooking Dealey Plaza, as the president’s motorcade passed below him.

The commission’s official conclusion has been roundly disputed and disbelieved, with polls consistently showing a clear majority of Americans feel Kennedy was murdered as the result of a conspiracy — with theories floated implicating the Mafia, the CIA and disgruntled Cuban exiles, along others.

This is a developing story. Check back for more information.
