The Trump administration has released over 240,000 pages of FBI records related to the assassination of Dr.
Martin Luther King Jr., despite strong opposition from King's family. The documents, which had been sealed since 1977, detail the FBI's surveillance of King and the investigation into his murder. Critics, including King's relatives, argue the release could be used to tarnish King's legacy and distract from the ongoing controversy over unreleased Jeffrey Epstein files. Early analysis by historians suggests the files contain little new information about the assassination itself.
The move has sparked debate over government transparency, privacy, and the motives behind the timing of the release.
