U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has provided the Department of Justice with thousands of pages of files related to Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaking to Fox News, Bondi stated that the FBI met her deadline, delivering a substential amount of documents after an initial batch of around 100 pages contained no new revelations.
She revealed that a source informed her the Epstein documents were stored in the Southern District of New York, a location she found unsurprising. She stated that the FBI is now reviewing the thousands of pages and that Director Kash Patel will provide a detailed report on why the documents had been withheld.
Bondi emphasised that the Department of Justice is carefully examining the files and assured that a thorough report would eventually be made public. She stressed the importance of proceeding cautiously to protect Epstein’s victims while also criticizing the previous administration for failing to act on the documents.
Expressing frustration, she questioned why they had remained in the Southern District of New York and accused officials of lacking transparency and honesty.
The long-awaited release of the Epstein documents last Thursday left many disappointed, as it did not include the expected client list that could provide further insight into his Palm Beach-based trafficking operation. While names such as Michael Jackson, Mick Jagger, Alec Baldwin, Dustin Hoffman, and Ivanka Trump appeared in the files, they had been previously disclosed and were never linked to Epstein’s criminal activities.
Epstein died by suicide in his New York jail cell in August 2019 while awaiting trial, while his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for her involvement in the trafficking scheme.
"It's a new day. It's a new administration, and everything's going to come out to the public," said Bondi. "The public has the right to know. Americans have a right to know."
