The government was required by Thursday to release the final batch of files related to Kennedy's assassination in Dallas on Nov 22, 1963. But Mr Trump delayed the release of the remaining files after last-minute appeals from the CIA and FBI. Officials say Mr Trump will impress upon federal agencies that JFK files should stay secret after the six-month review "only in the rarest cases". The chances are slim, according to the judge who led the independent board that reviewed and released thousands of the assassination documents in the 1990s. But Mr Tunheim said it's possible the files contain information the board didn't realize was important two decades ago.
