Each set of circumstances surrounding the destruction of JFK assassination-related records — whether by a government agency or an individual — tells its own story. Taken together, these stories (as told in Chad Nagle’s ongoing series “Trail of Destruction") illuminate the extraordinary and disturbing lengths the U.S. government is prepared to go to advance the official narrative of the “lone gunman” in President Kennedy’s murder.

This week’s story comes from Hunter Leake, the CIA’s number two man in New Orleans, who disclosed he used Oswald for intelligence purposes.
