"US Congress votes to release more Department of Justice files on the Epstein case."
"The battle over the files in the investigation of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has reached a new turn with the United States Congress voting for the Department of Justice to release its information on the case."
"As the world waits for what the full files may reveal, what do we know about the rich and elite who surrounded Epstein?"
Jeffrey Epstein cultivated a network that included social, financial, and political elites who appeared in flight logs, contact lists, photographs, and financial records. Ghislaine Maxwell played a central facilitating role and was convicted of sex‑trafficking related charges. Leslie Wexner maintained close financial ties and granted Epstein power of attorney. Public figures linked to Epstein include Bill Clinton, who flew on Epstein’s plane for foundation-related trips; Prince Andrew, who settled a civil claim alleging sexual misconduct; and Donald Trump, who socialized with Epstein in the 1990s and later distanced himself. Leon Black had reported business payments to Epstein and stepped back from leadership amid scrutiny. Presence in records does not alone establish criminal conduct; many named individuals have denied wrongdoing. The newly released DOJ materials may provide fuller context about contacts, payments, and investigative findings.
