The Kennedy Conspiracy: Fact & Fiction – Alcatraz East

While it has been 63 years since President John F. Kennedy’s assassination, people remain intensely interested in him and the conspiracy theories surrounding his death. Alcatraz East Crime Museum is expanding its exhibit titled “The Kennedy Conspiracy: Fact & Fiction” and it will remain open through May 2026.

The popular temporary exhibit explores the conspiracy theories surrounding Kennedy’s assassination. The exhibit is being extended in conjunction with the declassification of additional documents related to the tragedy. These documents were previously classified, but on March 17, 2025, President Donald Trump ordered their release. According to the National Archives, the documents were released without redactions, and some contain personal information about living individuals to maximize transparency. The National Archives maintains a collection of over 6 million pages of records, photographs, motion pictures, recordings, and other sources related to the assassination.
