FILE - Liverpool soccer fans arrive at Anfield Stadium to pay their respects as flower tributes cover the 'Kop' end of the field, in Liverpool, on April 17, 1989, following April 15, when fans surged forward during the FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest at Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield, when the crash barriers gave way, killing 96 Liverpool fans and injuring over 200 others. After a long campaign by relatives of the 96 soccer fans who were crushed to death in Britain’s worst sporting disaster, some 400,000 pages of previously undisclosed papers will be released Wednesday Sept. 12, 2012, and the previously secret documents may clarify what caused the disaster and how mistakes by British authorities may have contributed to the 1989 tragedy.
