The FBI just discovered about 2,400 records tied to President Kennedy's assassination that were never provided to a board tasked with reviewing and disclosing the documents, AmericanDiary24 informs via Axios.
The still-secret records are contained in 14,000 pages of documents the FBI found in a review triggered by President Trump's January 23 executive order demanding the release of all JFK assassination records.
The discovery — 61 years after Kennedy was killed in Dallas — follows decades of government reluctance to release all documents related to the assassination, which fueled a mountain of conspiracy theories.
The existence of the new documents was disclosed Friday to the White House, when the Office of the Director of National Intelligence submitted its plan to disclose the assassination records under Trump's order.
The contents of the newly found records are closely held secrets. The three sources who relayed their existence to Axios said they hadn't seen the documents.
