Robert F. Kennedy assassination files released

() The Trump administration has begun the process of releasing previously classified files about the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy in 1968.

The National Archives is making approximately 10,000 pages available online following an executive order mandating the release of files on the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. as well as files related to billionaire and accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

The pages released Friday morning include information already in the public domain as well as information that has been stored for decades.

Last week, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard issued a statement saying that “nearly 60 years after the tragic assassination of Senator Robert F. Kennedy, the American people will for the first time have an opportunity to review the federal government’s investigation thanks to the leadership of President Trump.”

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was just 14 when his father was killed. Gabbard addressed him in a Cabinet meeting, saying that more than 100 people have been working around the clock to scan stored documents on both Kennedy and King’s assassinations.

“These have been sitting in boxes in storage for decades. They have never been scanned or seen before,” she said.

Around 10,000 pages were released Friday, and Gabbard said there may be an additional 50,000 coming. The pages are unredacted, with the exception of sensitive personal information, such as the Social Security numbers of living individuals.

Kennedy’s assassination has been the subject of conspiracy theories, including around the identity of the killer.

Sirhan Sirhan was convicted of assassinating Kennedy and has been in prison serving a sentence for that crime, but RFK Jr. has long said that he could be innocent.

It will take time for historians and academics to thoroughly review the documents and determine what new information is revealed and what it may mean.
