Hillary Clinton accuses Trump's justice department of Epstein files cover-up'
"Hillary Clinton has accused the Trump administration of a cover-up over the Epstein files, while claiming that she and her husband are being forced to testify before Congress to deflect scrutiny from Donald Trump. In an interview with the BBC, Clinton said the US Department of Justice was slow-walking the release of documents relating to Jeffrey Epstein's catalogue of crimes and urged the administration to get the files out."
"Despite periodic document dumps of the files since Congress mandated their release late last year, the justice department is still withholding about 3m files. Clinton's comments, at the Munich security conference, came as she and her husband, Bill Clinton, the former president, prepare to give sworn depositions on the affair before the House oversight committee. Hillary Clinton is scheduled to testify on 26 February, while Bill will appear the day after."
Hillary Clinton accuses the US Department of Justice of slow-walking release of documents relating to Jeffrey Epstein's crimes and urges immediate disclosure. The Justice Department has released periodic document dumps since Congress mandated disclosure but continues to withhold roughly three million files. Hillary and Bill Clinton will give sworn depositions before the House Oversight Committee on 26 and 27 February. The couple is scheduled to appear amid claims they are being singled out compared with other witnesses. Clinton alleges the subpoenas aim to divert attention from President Donald Trump, who has said he is "totally exonerated."
