Among all the decrees signed by Donald Trump on Thursday, there is one that attracts great attention: the one which orders the declassification of the entire file of the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

Since the fateful day of November 22, 1963, the craziest theories have been circulating, and mystery enthusiasts around the world are passing on scraps of information. The investigative journalist and host of the show JE Félix Séguin is among them. Here’s what he hopes to find in these documents.
A well-known story, but…
Felix does not expect the names of the people who ordered the murder to be in the remaining pages. On the other hand, he believes that we could find clues there which would make it possible to identify the culprits.
We must not forget that Lee Harvey Oswald always proclaimed loud and clear that he was just a pigeon in this affair. Over the decades, approximately 97% of the case has been officially made public.
The “real” photos from JFK’s autopsy
After the death of JFK, the Warren Commission was established to shed light on the tragic event. Chief Justice Earl Warren presented an 888-page report which was heavily criticized upon its release.
To quell popular discontent, the House of Representatives established the House Select Committee on Assassinations. But against all expectations, the experts will only have illustrations based on the real autopsy photos.
Will we see the real photos of the corpse, which could shed new light on the events?
A file that will remain incomplete?
Félix Séguin has read a lot of literature on the death of JFK, including the official reports. He also went twice to Grassy Knoll, Dallas, the legendary place where the drama took place.
-Although he expects some additional revelations, he believes fans will be disappointed. According to him, several pages could already have been destroyed.

When the “deep state” hits
Many amateur investigators believe that this whole story is “the most resounding state conspiracy ever to occur on the planet.”
According to this theory, certain organizations unhappy with the president’s management would have liked to see him disappear. This would particularly be the case of the CIA, which would not have liked its reaction to the Cuban missile crisis, among others.
The mafia gets revenge
The other theory, the one which is the most plausible according to Félix Séguin, is that of an act sponsored by the mafia. JFK’s father allegedly had close ties to certain crime bosses.
In addition, mafioso Sam Giancana was assassinated before testifying to the Church commission, responsible for investigating the abuses of various intelligence agencies such as the CIA, the NSA and the FBI.
Additionally, during a surveillance operation, the FBI recorded a telephone conversation between Giancana and Santo Trafficante, the former boss of the Cuban mafia. The Cuban then claimed that “now the only two people who know who killed Kennedy are alive, and they won’t talk.”
