"I expect we're going to release several hundred thousand documents today, and those documents will come in all different forms, photographs and other materials associated with all of the investigations into Mr Epstein. I expect that we're going to release more documents over the next couple of weeks, so today several hundred thousand and then over the next couple weeks, I expect several hundred thousand more, Blanche said."
"We are now examining all legal options in the face of this violation of federal law. The survivors of this nightmare deserve justice, the co-conspirators must be held accountable, and the American people deserve complete transparency from DoJ."
The Department of Justice will not release all files related to Jeffrey Epstein within the statutory 30-day deadline, and plans phased document releases totaling several hundred thousand items now and additional hundreds of thousands over coming weeks. The phased approach is being framed as necessary to protect victims and to review materials. Congressional leaders have sharply rebuked the decision and are examining legal options, citing violation of federal law. The law mandates release of departmental documents related to Epstein’s investigation and prosecution, with limited exceptions for specific protected information.
