The National Archive Has Released 1491 Documents Related To JFK Investigation

 There are 150 pages of titles and each title (at least on the pages I looked at) were linkable. These were made available yesterday.  What I saw were reports of investigations on people that someone thought was suspicious.   For example there's a document on a Gilberto Portocarpo Lopez, who had the misfortune to return to Cuba to visit his ailing mother immediately after Kennedy's assassination.   The document seems to clear him of any connection to the assassination.

Also interesting to some, might be 

• the editing notes on the document.  
•  the notes about how the CIA didn't share information because they didn't want to reveal how they got the information.  
• the names and bits of information on the people investigated, questioned, and the investigators might be of interest to people who are related to them

I also looked at testimony by William E. Colby, Director of the CIA before US Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activity.  I would guess that most of this is already known or suspected.  This time I was smarter and included page numbers.  

 I suspect there isn't anything too interesting hidden in these many documents.  But I'm not a JFK Assassination buff. 

Here's some questioning about other assassinations.  

I get the sense that Colby is good at evasive answers and the Senators are good at knowing when they shouldn't press for better answers.  Of course I could be wrong, but that's what it feels like to me.  

The next two pages are about a meeting with Robert Kennedy where the CIA was practicing the live editing I felt in the previous page.  

If all this is top secret and being made public for the first time, then was was it marked "Photocopy from Gerald Ford Library"?  But I'm not going to nibble that bait.  

This trove of documents is a rabbit hole I really don't want to pursue any further.  There's a whole JFK assassination industry ready to do that.  But it was a good excuse to put off redistricting board lawsuits.  And to give readers an alternative time waster to Twitter.  And this blog.
