Warren Commission

The public record identifies Warren Commission as a presidential files matter associated with President's Commission during 1963–1964. The presidential commission established to investigate the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

Created days after the assassination, the commission gathered testimony, physical evidence and investigative reports before publishing its findings in 1964.

The commission concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald fired the shots that killed President Kennedy and that Jack Ruby acted alone in killing Oswald. Later investigations revisited aspects of the case, making the commission records central to continuing historical debate.

The linked source set contains 2 official or primary archival records. Together, these materials establish the responsible organizations, the relevant time period, the reported location, and the official findings or historical conclusions summarized in this file.

The appearance of a statement in a government file does not by itself prove that the statement is accurate.
