The U.S. National Archives has released over 10,000 pages of records related to the 1968 assassination of Senator Robert F. Kennedy, following an order from the Trump administration to declassify more information about high-profile American assassinations. Many of these documents had never been digitized and were stored for decades, while others had already been partially released. The new files are expected to shed light on the investigation and may address longstanding conspiracy theories, including speculation about a possible second gunman. The release has been welcomed by RFK's son and current officials, who hope it will provide greater transparency and insight into the events surrounding the senator's death. The move is part of a broader push for government transparency regarding historical political assassinations.
