The Civil Rights Cold Case Records Review Board announced that it received 265 pages of records related to four civil rights cold case incidents. The Board decided to make 238 pages fully public and 27 pages partially available, while approving 129 proposed delays for the release of certain records by the FBI and the Department of Justice. They are still reviewing 4 other postponements suggested by the FBI. This action complies with the legal requirement to share their decisions about withholding or releasing records within 14 days.
Simple Explanation
The government has some old, important papers about civil rights cases, and they've decided to share most of them with everyone. But some papers will be kept secret for a while because the police and law helpers say it's not safe to share them yet.
