Thousands of classified JFK assassination files have been released for the first time, opening up a possible treasure trove for historians and conspiracy theorists
Some 13,173 unredacted documents relating to the killing of the former US president were published on Thursday evening UK time, giving historians and conspiracy theorists a treasure trove of new material to work with.
Announcing the release of the files via an executive order, but keeping thousands more under wraps, President Joe Biden said on Thursday: "Pursuant to my direction, agencies have undertaken a comprehensive effort to review the full set of almost 16,000 records that had previously been released in redacted form and determined that more than 70 percent of those records may now be released in full.
The publication of this batch of documents is the first since the Biden administration released 1,500 files last year.
