Millions of Pages in Epstein Case Made Public
World
The U.S. Department of Justice has released millions of previously undisclosed documents related to the case of financier Jeffrey Epstein, who was convicted of sex crimes and died in prison in 2019. This marks the largest disclosure since the adoption of the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
According to BBC News, approximately 3 million pages of documents, 180,000 photographs, and nearly 2,000 video files were made public. It remains unclear whether this release completes the full disclosure process.
The publication comes six weeks after the Justice Department missed a deadline set by U.S. President Donald Trump requiring the release of all materials linked to the Epstein case.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the release concludes a comprehensive identification and review process aimed at ensuring transparency and compliance with the law.
The newly released files include details of Epstein’s time in prison, psychological assessments, a report on his death, and investigative materials related to Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted for assisting in the trafficking of minors.
The documents also republish emails exchanged between Epstein and high-profile individuals. Among them is correspondence with a person referred to as “the Duke,” discussing a dinner at Buckingham Palace and an offer to introduce a 26-year-old Russian woman. The emails, dated August 2010 and signed with the initial “A,” are believed to reference Prince Andrew, Duke of York. The materials contain no indication of criminal wrongdoing.
U.S. President Donald Trump is mentioned hundreds of times in the documents, which include unverified hotline allegations submitted in 2024. The White House stated that some claims are false and sensational. Trump denies any involvement in Epstein’s crimes and has not been accused by victims.
The files also mention Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates. His spokesperson described the allegations as “absurd and false.”
