MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA, JUL 14 – The CIA disclosed that officer George Joannides covertly managed Cuban anti-Castro groups who confronted Oswald before JFK's assassination, challenging decades of agency denials, House Oversight Committee said.
- Over sixty years after Kennedy’s death, newly declassified documents show the CIA undermined its claim of limited knowledge of Lee Harvey Oswald, and evidence reveals George Joannides financed and directed anti-Castro Cuban groups aware of Oswald, according to the House Oversight Committee 'federal secrets' task force.
- Following pressure from lawmakers, the CIA revisits its archives, uncovering significant discoveries about George Joannides that contradict long-standing denials, as Luna emphasized the agency's past misleading statements.

- Broader reflections underscore ongoing inquiries into CIA-Oswald links, with Judge Tunheim stating, 'We are getting closer to the truth,' highlighting transparency challenges.
