**Washington, D.C. –** The Trump administration has released approximately 10,000 pages of previously classified documents related to the 1968 assassination of Senator Robert F. Kennedy. The release, fulfilling a presidential order and supported by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., includes handwritten notes from convicted assassin Sirhan Sirhan, witness interviews, crime scene photos, FBI memos, and public correspondence.
While many details are already known, the documents, available online with limited redactions, could reignite speculation about the killing. Sirhan Sirhan’s notes, some expressing an obsession with eliminating RFK, are included, along with FBI memos detailing Sirhan’s past, including a head injury. Witness accounts, some referencing longstanding conspiracy theories (such as a woman in a polka-dot dress), are also part of the release.
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard stated that an additional 50,000 pages of related documents have been discovered and are being processed for release. The administration’s commitment to transparency also includes the release of documents related to the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and President John F. Kennedy.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has long questioned Sirhan’s sole responsibility, expressed gratitude for the release. Sirhan Sirhan, while convicted and having admitted to the killing, has also denied responsibility at times. His parole requests have been repeatedly denied. Experts remain divided on whether the released documents will reveal significant new information, as many files from the original investigation have been publicly accessible for decades.
