The US Department of Justice released its latest - and largest - tranche of Jeffrey Epstein files on Tuesday. The 11,000-plus documents continue a stream of released information that began on Friday, the deadline mandated in a new law that required the department to publicly release all of its investigative files into the deceased paedophile and financier.
Many of the documents released on Tuesday are redacted, with names and information blacked out, including individuals whom the FBI appears to cite as possible co-conspirators in the Epstein case. The Justice Department has faced criticism from lawmakers over the extent of these redactions, which the law specifies must only protect the identity of victims or ongoing criminal investigations.
President Donald Trump's name surfaced more frequently in this latest batch of documents compared to previous releases. While several references stem from media articles, one email from a federal prosecutor indicated that Trump had flown on Epstein's private jet.
The Justice Department highlighted that some documents 'contain untrue and sensationalist claims' about Trump, emphasizing that mentioning an individual in the epstein files does not imply wrongdoing.
Among the notable communications was an email sent by an individual identified as 'A' to Ghislaine Maxwell regarding 'inappropriate friends.' The released documents also contained a fake video that raised questions about its presence in official files.
The files further revealed 10 possible co-conspirators of Epstein, with ongoing scrutiny over their identities and connections. This new evidence raises significant concerns over accountability, pushing lawmakers to demand greater transparency from the DOJ.
