"So it's only fair to point out that we here at Above the Law also found ourselves in the Department of Justice's latest document dump. I guess that's the sort of participatory journalism you've come to expect from us. None of us gushed about the infamous pedophile's parties or preened about gifts the trafficker gave us. Rather, an FBI agent received a copy of our Daily Newsletter in 2023 that included a story about Epstein."
"But our cameo in the highest profile document production in the world should raise a few questions. Like "why is a publication's newsletter in the Epstein files at all?" Or "why are they producing documents between a third party and an FBI agent?" Or, at the risk of being blunt, "why is a request for investigation files producing documents from FOUR YEARS AFTER THIS EPSTEIN JACKASS DIED?""
Above the Law's Daily Newsletter was included among Department of Justice records produced in the Jeffrey Epstein document release. An FBI agent received a copy of that newsletter in 2023 that contained a story about Epstein. The presence of a publication's newsletter among responsive records raises questions about why third-party communications and exchanges with an FBI agent were collected and produced. The production also contained materials dated years after Epstein's death, including press releases and reporting about a noose mismatch at the scene. Statutory obligations required the administration to produce all unclassified DOJ records related to Jeffrey Epstein.
