Soon after, Oswald, a former Marine and onetime defector to the Soviet Union, was arrested and charged with the killings of\u00a0Kennedy and Dallas police officer J.D.

Still-secret documents in the file of now-dead CIA agent George Joannides, who is known to have infiltrated pro-Cuban groups, could provide proof of an operation designed to discredit U.S. supporters of Cuban leader Fidel Castro, Morley said, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/world\/americas\/jfk-assassination-lee-harvey-oswald-jefferson-morley-b2239997.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">per the Independent<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Morley is the vice president of the Mary Ferrell Foundation, which in October sued Biden and the National Archives, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maryferrell.org\/pages\/JFK_Records_Lawsuit.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">accusing the government<\/a> of failing to implement the 1992 JFK Records Act, even though tens of thousands of documents <a href=\"https:\/\/www.archives.gov\/research\/jfk\/release2021\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">have already been released<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Last fall, Biden ordered a delay in the planned release of all remaining JFK files, but allowed for an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2021\/12\/15\/biden-administration-releases-previously-classified-jfk-assassination-files\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">interim release in December 2021<\/a>, and\u00a0set a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/statements-releases\/2021\/10\/22\/memorandum-for-the-heads-of-executive-departments-and-agencies-on-the-temporary-certification-regarding-disclosure-of-information-in-certain-records-related-to-the-assassination-of-president-john-f-k\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">December 15, 2022, deadline for full disclosure<\/a>\u00a0following a redactions process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CIA documents indicate Lee Harvey Oswald was involved in a secret intelligence operation roughly three months before the assassination of President John F.
