JFK files: What we know about another delay in the release of assassination records

President Joe Biden last week again stalled the release of government records about the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy Jr., blaming the COVID-19 pandemic for the latest delay.

By law, all government records about Kennedy’s killing on Nov. 22, 1963, were to be made public by Oct. 25, 2017, but former President Donald Trump and now Biden both have taken steps to delay the release of the remaining files.
