Washington — The FBI said Monday that it discovered roughly 2,400 records related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy during a search stemming from President Trump's executive action ordering files related to the 1963 killing to be declassified.
The bureau said that the newly found documents, which have been inventoried and digitized, "were previously unrecognized as related to the JFK assassination case file." The FBI said it made the appropriate notifications of the records and is working to transfer them to the National Archives and Records Administration to be included in the declassification process that has been ongoing. The bureau did not say what the records contain.
Mr. Trump signed an executive order on his first week in office that called for the declassification of files related to the assassinations of Kennedy, his brother Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and civil rights icon Martin Luther King Jr.
