HeinOnline’s JFK Assassination Collection

President John F. Kennedy

President John F. Kennedy was killed on November 22, 1963. Almost 30 years later, the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992 directed the National Archives and Records Administration to create a collection of U.S. government documents related to the assassination. 

Now available on HeinOnline, this collection contains an assortment of interesting documents, such as the autopsy report. Many of the documents in this collection were released to the public in the 1990s but some were withheld until the last few years, in accordance with the JFK Assassination Records Collection Act. Included in this HeinOnline collection, and released somewhat recently, are the audio recordings of the House Select Committee on Assassinations interview of CIA Mexico City employees Boris and Anna Tarasoff. For more information on the Tarasoffs, see this Frontline article
