People named in JFK assassination documents are not happy their personal information was released

Sensitive personal information including Social Security numbers was revealed in the newly unredacted John F. Kennedy assassination documents released this week, and that is not sitting well with the people affected.
Joseph diGenova, a former campaign lawyer for President Donald Trump, was among those whose personal information was disclosed. He said he is planning to sue the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration for violating privacy laws over concerns about identity theft.
It should not have happened, diGenova said in a phone interview Thursday. I think its the result of incompetent people doing the reviewing. I dont believe it had anything to do with rushing the process. The people who reviewed these documents did not do their job.
His personal information was on documents relating to his work for a U.S. Senate select committee that investigated abuses of power by government officials in the 1970s, including the surveillance of U.S. citizens.
