This is a good summary of the things found in the documents released through the Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB) by Gil Jesus. I don’t know if he is still active in the President John F. Kennedy (JFK) assassination research community or not, but he did good work over the years. This is from May 2008.

The Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB) found a tremendous amount of new, important information on the JFK case. Here are just a few of the things that came from the ARRB's investigation:
* Evidence that the autopsy photos of JFK's brain at the National Archives are not of Kennedy's brain. One ARRB staffer wrote a lengthy memorandum detailing this evidence.
* Evidence that numerous autopsy photos are missing from the official collection of autopsy pictures. Autopsy photographer John Stringer acknowledged to the ARRB that the extant set of autopsy photos is incomplete.
* HSCA medical interview transcripts showing that numerous medical personnel and federal agents who witnessed the autopsy told the HSCA they saw a large wound in the back of President Kennedy's head.
* An FBI evidence envelope (FBI Field Office Dallas 89-43-1A-122) that indicated a fourth bullet shell was found in Dealey Plaza. Although the envelope was empty, the cover indicated it had contained a 7.65 mm rifle shell that had been found in Dealey Plaza after the shooting.
The envelope is dated 2 December 1963, so the shell was found sometime between 11/22/63 and 12/2/63. Nothing was known about the discovery of this shell until the FBI evidence envelope was released along with other assassination-related files by order of the ARRB.
* The ARRB located and interviewed one of the photographic technicians who processed photos from JFK's autopsy. Saundra Kay Spencer, as established by chain of evidence documentation, processed the autopsy photos that Secret Service Agent James Fox brought from the autopsy. However, she did not process any black and white photos, only negatives and color positives, and she told the ARRB she did not process any of the autopsy photos now in evidence. She said the current autopsy photos were not the ones she processed. This suggests the black and white autopsy photos were processed elsewhere, and that there were two sets of autopsy photos.
The ARRB also turned up important information relating to Oswald and the CIA and to Oswald's activities in Mexico City, as Professor John Newman documents in his book Oswald and the CIA (New York: Carroll & Graf, 1995). The ARRB found the transcript of a phone call between then-FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover and President Lyndon Johnson in which Hoover told Johnson someone must have been impersonating Oswald in Mexico City.
In addition, the ARRB found new information pertaining to the Jim Garrison case against New Orleans businessman Clay Shaw. Documents released by the ARRB show that Garrison's case against Shaw was not at all groundless. William Davy discusses the new information on the Garrison investigation in his book Let Justice Be Done: New Light on the Jim Garrison Investigation (Reston, VA: Reston Publishing, 1999).
