Kimberlyn King-Hinds, a Republican, wrote in a July letter to the president.<\/p>\n<p>One of the theories is that Earhart was on a spy mission for the U.S. government when she landed in Saipan and was taken into custody by the Japanese.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Documents <a href=\"https:\/\/vault.fbi.gov\/amelia-mary-earhart\/Amelia%20Mary%20Earhart%20Part%2001%20%28Final%29\/view\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">previously released<\/a> by the FBI contain a 1967 request for a security review of a manuscript that cites Navy files on Earhart that were marked &#8220;confidential,&#8221; a level of classification. The manuscript&#8217;s author, a senior officer in the Air Force, wrote that the conclusions in the Navy report were that Earhart was not on a spy mission, did not crash-land in Saipan, and was not held as a prisoner or executed as a spy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The FBI, in approving that manuscript for publication \u2014 which is a typical process for current and former government officials \u2014 noted that the Navy files did &#8220;not warrant classification since the release of it would not be prejudicial to the national defense.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Shapiro called the theory that Earhart was taken captive in Saipan &#8220;nonsense.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s 99.9% that she ran out of gas,&#8221; Shapiro told CBS News. She said Earhart and Noonan were low on fuel and &#8220;very ill-prepared&#8221; for their attempted flight to Howland Island, a tiny, difficult-to-find island in the middle of the ocean.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s very boring to tell people, you know what, she ran out of gas,&#8221; Shapiro said. &#8220;The fantasy around it is amazing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The National Archives and Records Administration has also previously\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.archives.gov\/news\/topics\/earhart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">released documents<\/a>\u00a0on the search for Earhart. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In 1993, two Hawaiian lawmakers introduced bills in the House and Senate to require the government to release all records relating to Earhart&#8217;s last flight and disappearance. The bills called for the declassification of any such relevant records that have been classified as government secrets.\u00a0The measures never made it out of the committees they were referred to.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump&#8217;s push to declassify Earhart records follows his decision <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/martin-luther-king-jr-assassination-records-released-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">to release records<\/a><\/span> on the 1960s-era assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr., <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-jfk-assassination-files-released-2025\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">John F.
