Disciplining agents for dereliction in the Oswald investigation would be seen as Early in 1962, the FBI, the CIA, the Pentagon, and the Immigration & Naturalization Service all had files on Oswald but none of them shared the information with any of the other agencies. Before the Kennedy murder, the FBI had gathered evidence that Oswald may have been a deranged Marxist who supported the Cuban Revolution. The Central Intelligence Agency knew that Oswald was working at the Texas Book Depository. If the Secret Service had been privy to these agency’s files or even one of them, the Kennedy Assassination might have been prevented. Also, to J. Edgar Hoover’s later distress, the FBI did not follow up and locate Oswald when they learned their facts. He disciplined several agents. See {634531}. No one was more careful to “protect” the image of the FBI than Hoover. He used his powers to classify documents as “Secret” and did so for all the documentation of the FBI negligence and the discipline until 2000 when it became public.
