American authorities published more than 60,000 pages of unpublished documents related to the murder in 1968 by Robert F. Kennedy (RFK), brother of the 35th US President, John F. Kennedy, as can be seen on the website of the national archives of the country.
According to the National Intelligence Director, Tulsi Gabbard, the fact of making public 64,686 folios of documents previously classified is “an important step towards maximum transparency, to discover the truth and share it.”
According to the agency’s statement, unlike the archives related to the murder of former president John F. Kennedy, those related to his brother’s murder had never been digitized or made accessible to the public.
It is required that the new documents reveal details never released before the FBI investigation. That includes clues in a row by several offices of the organism and internal memoranda that shed light on the progress of the case. Also, audio recordings of the interrogations of the Los Angeles Police Department to Sirhan Sirhan, murderer of Robert Kennedy, as well as interviews with witnesses who were present at the place of the crime.

Among them, administrative records related to the initial investigation of his murder in 1963, carried out by a commission directed by the then president of the US Supreme Court, Earl Warren. Also, the compilation of its report, together with data that it received from federal agencies and photographs, recordings and hearings of the Commission.
The publication of the documents is produced following an executive order that Donald Trump signed at the end of January to declassify the archives about the three great political murders that occurred in the 1960s: those of John and Robert Kennedy and that of Martin Luther King Jr., leader of civil rights, underlining that “it is of national interest to make public all the records related to these homicides related to these homicides. Without delay. “
