Newly released JFK files on his 1963 assassination show how the Chicago Outfit helped train Cuban militiamen who opposed Fidel Castro.
CHICAGO The public has been waiting for years to see the remaining records from the JFK assassination file.
They’ve now been released, and Chicago names are popping up in the fine print.
On Thursday the National Archives made public nearly 1,500 documents related to the federal investigation into the 1963 shooting of President John F. Kennedy.
When the shots killed President Kennedy in a car in Dallas, Texas, the investigation that followed produced hundreds of thousands of records, transcripts, cables, pictures and films.
The long-awaited and long-locked up documents were ordered released by the White House. In the files are expected details of Lee Harvey Oswald’s connections to the Soviet Union and Cuba.
Also in the document dump are new details about Chicago as a training ground for Cuban militiamen.
