Ford also left behind a somewhat surprising call for the complete release of all classified documents relating to the Kennedy assassination—an entreaty yet to be heeded, since fifty-thousand-plus pages of information, including key CIA records, are still kept from the public.97 In a conversation with a trusted journalist, Thomas DeFrank, Ford gave permission to publish the following comment after his death, which DeFrank did in 2007: “The time has come to do it, but you have to be forewarned: there are some stories that’ll come out that were never verified that could be harmful to some people … I’ll just say some people that are known. You know how that happens—somebody investigates, somebody asks questions, and they make a statement. They’re never verified, it’s rumor, et cetera. That’s gonna happen, and that’s too bad.”98 Unfortunate or not, the revelations are a part of history, and after fifty years of delay, few will disagree with Ford’s suggestion.
