Clay Shaw Papers Go to JFK Case Agency
- Share via
The papers of Clay Shaw, a New Orleans businessman who was acquitted of conspiring to murder John F. Kennedy, are going to be made public. Two weeks ago, the papers--seven boxes of material, including Shaw’s diary, correspondence and photographs--were given to the Assassination Records Review Board, an agency created by Congress to gather all available records of the assassination of President Kennedy on Nov. 22, 1963, and open them to the public. The papers will go to the National Archives. Shaw died in 1974, five years after being put on trial by New Orleans District Atty. Jim Garrison.
