"Channel 4 News reported that internal emails seen by its journalists show federal investigators expected to process between 20 and 40 terabytes of data seized from Epstein's properties, including his Florida mansion, New York townhouse, and private island. The broadcaster added that emails between investigators discussed the data totaling up to 50 terabytes from the earliest stages in June 2020."
"The report then noted that the total data released in the most recent tranche of 3.5 million Epstein documents totalled more than 300GBs and that that accounts for just 2% of the data that officials were discussing just last year. The Epstein Files Transparency Act mandated the disclosure of millions of documents tied to the convicted sex offender and required department lawyers to review all files for material relating to Epstein and his network."
"There are many files that are completely invisible to us, one email read. Another investigator wrote: Imagine if we had seized the papers from approximately 100,000 filing cabinets. Then that all just got dumped in one big pile. Documents that had multiple parts stapled together got separated. And then any of those documents that was larger than 100 pages couldn't be opened. That's what we've got."
Federal investigators expected to process between 20 and 40 terabytes of data seized from Epstein's properties, with internal discussions mentioning totals up to 50 terabytes and approximately 14.6 terabytes of archived material. The most recent tranche of released files comprised more than 300GB across 3.5 million documents, representing roughly 2% of the data under discussion. The Epstein Files Transparency Act required disclosure of millions of documents and mandated departmental review of files for material relating to Epstein and his network. Investigators reported many files are too large or fragmented to open, with multipart documents separated and large files exceeding system limits.
