Epstein Files: Justice Dept. to Release Records

The Justice Department is set to release detailed files on Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender, this Friday, following a bipartisan effort in Congress. These records could shed light on nearly two decades of government investigations into Epsteins sexual abuse. Despite Trumps initial dismissal of the Epstein matter, he later changed his stance, supporting the release of these files. Epsteins investigations began in 2005, leading to a plea deal that allowed him to avoid federal prosecution and serve only 18 months in jail. His associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, was later convicted for recruiting underage girls for Epstein. The publics interest remains high, particularly regarding Epsteins connections to figures like Trump, Prince Andrew, and Bill Clinton. DNN | The Daily News Now!
