"In summary, and based on the above information, it is concluded that the letter was transmitted via normal Swedish postal channels. The letter is probably a "crank letter", most likely written by a Swede, using a Swedish-keyboard typewriter and Swedish stationary."
The mere thought of this kind of bureaucracy requiring this lengthy reply to a nonsense letter worries me.
And even with all that pushback it’s still true. They keep releasing 70%, making that last bit of the documents that’s unreleased ever smaller. But there’s always something unreleased!
Surely all the juicy stuff is held back.

...was that really so secret 60 years ago that we had to keep the memo about the memo under wraps? And still so secret that even this revelation has so many redactions?
If Russia did it the information would have been released by now due to total collapse of diplomatic relations.
Sounds crazy reading the above, but as skeptical as I've been over the years of every theory, this is the closest to the truth based on the evidence that we have.
But Barbara Bush said in her memoirs that he was in Texas, near Dallas, at that time.
In the absence of the truth, there will ever only be theories.
Some interesting stuff in there, just from browsing the overview .XLSX file.
What about the remaining percentage? Why is that not being released?
Will be interesting to see what all's been released, but I feel like at this point he (jfk) had so many enemies (Cuba/three letter agencies/mob) that short of someone coming forward with a confession and new solid evidence we'll never know much beyond Oswald.
I do think most likely though that Oswald was just off his rocker.
In the 2017 release, some files were shown to have been rereleased with fewer redactions, while others had added redactions. This is not likely nefarious but due to either a different/newer team working on them, or a mistake, or perhaps changing to a different document system.
Is this the new "70% of the time it works every time"? (I get that "in full" means "not redacted" but it's still a funny juxtaposition of words.)
