US Department of Justice to Release Epstein-Related Files Shedding Light on Alleged Misdeeds and Connections
The US Department of Justice is expected to release a massive archive of files related to Jeffrey Epstein this evening. Epstein, a disgraced late financier and sex trafficker, has been implicated in numerous crimes, and the release of these documents could illuminate his alleged misdeeds as well as his connections with key public figures, including former President Donald Trump.
The Trump administration is obliged to publish this archive, which has drawn significant public and media attention. The Guardian featured a segment discussing the significance of this moment, with contributors including Jonathan Freedland, Lucy Hough, Bryony Moore, and Phil Maynard offering insights.
