The Justice Department has said it will release nearly 50,000 documents related to the case of late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein by the end of Friday.

A department spokeswoman told the Wall Street Journal Tuesday evening that “47,635 files were offline for further review and should be ready for re-production by the end of the week.”

The documents reportedly include unverified allegations of sexual abuse and misconduct against both Epstein, who was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell in August 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges, and President Trump — who enjoyed a friendship with the financier in the 1990s and early 2000s.

Thank you for the distinction! We are getting so numb! IMO

If it's any small consolation, regardless of what you might read and view online, the rest of the sane world feels for and understands the pain, grief and hardship that the Americans that have nothing to do with this insanity are going through.

Don't think that you're being generically judged. You're not.

It will end, is the best I can offer by way of comfort.

Epstein files: DOJ releases previously withheld FBI reports about sex abuse allegation against Trump


The Department of Justice on Thursday released three previously withheld FBI interview reports from 2019 related to a woman who made uncorroborated allegations that she was abused by Donald Trump in the 1980s, when she was a minor.

The woman claimed she was abused in the 1980s between the ages of 13 and 15.

In a statement on social media, the Department of Justice said the interview summaries -- known as FBI 302 reports -- were initially withheld from the January release of millions of pages of DOJ documents related to Jeffrey Epstein because they were believed to be duplicative of other documents. :rolleyes:

The Federal Drug Enforcement Administration opened an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and a dozen other individuals in 2015 that centered on allegations of money laundering, drug trafficking and the procurement of Eastern European prostitutes for high-profile clients, according to five people familiar with the case.

The investigation, which grew out of a longstanding probe into organized crime, was conducted by a secretive intelligence and law enforcement unit of the DEA and a transnational crime-fighting task force. It began after an informant told authorities that Epstein was involved in the illicit funding and distribution of so-called club drugs, including ecstasy, ketamine and methamphetamines, according to the people, who asked not to be named to discuss sensitive law enforcement matters.

The individuals named in a document related to the investigation, according to the people, included Epstein’s accountants, attorneys and European women who worked as his assistants or fashion models. The DEA investigation also named two businesses.

None of the individuals were charged with any offenses as a result of the investigation. It’s unclear how long the investigation remained open and what authorities ultimately learned from it because the complete case files have not been released. Yet descriptions of the DEA probe add to questions about what federal authorities knew about Epstein before they arrested him in 2019. By that time, he’d victimized more than 1,000 people, the US Department of Justice has said

The Department of Justice released a batch of previously unreleased documents from the Epstein files that include notes from FBI interviews with a woman who says she was assaulted by President Trump when she was a minor. The woman alleges she was assaulted by Trump in the 1980s and that she was also a victim of Epstein.

Justice correspondent Ali Rogin reports.

One of Jeffrey Epstein’s prison guards googled the sex predator minutes before he was found dead — and also made a mysterious $5,000 cash deposit 10 days before the predator’s jail-cell suicide, new Department of Justice documents reveal.

Tova Noel was one of the two Metropolitan Correctional Center workers accused of falsifying records to say they checked on Epstein throughout the night before his Aug. 10, 2019, suicide.

The guards were fired but criminal charges against both were later dropped.

Noel googled “latest on Epstein in jail” at 5:42 a.m. and then again at 5:52 a.m. — less than 40 minutes before her colleague, correctional officer Michael Thomas, found the disgraced financier dead in his cell by hanging at 6:30 a.m., according to an FBI record of Noel’s internet search history that night.

When questioned during her sworn statement to the DOJ in 2021, Noel denied googling Epstein.

“I don’t remember doing that,” she claimed, according to a transcript. She said FBI records were not “accurate. I don’t recall looking him up.”

Does anyone really believe that Epstein committed suicide at this late stage of the game? I mean, really?

What we now know of his meticulous record-keeping, my take is that he believed it/they would ultimately save him and eventually get him out of jail.

Something that those who may not have been aware of them, let alone quite how detailed they were, may not have considered.

Those ruthless roosting chickens coming home to roost.🐔 :cool:

A woman who claims she was abused as a minor by both Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump has given the FBI vivid accounts that include aspects of her life corroborated by the The Post and Courier through public records.

Her alleged encounter with Trump sometime around 1984 remains unproven, and the White House March 7 said there is “zero credible evidence” that the woman’s account is true.

Using archived government records and news accounts, The Post and Courier found that the woman provided verifiable details to agents about her family background and its legal entanglements. She offered the name of an Epstein business associate on Hilton Head Island who became a central figure in the drama, with specifics that are reflected in public records.

The accounts describe an early phase in the mid-1980s of potential criminal conduct by Epstein that involved sexual activities with minors on Hilton Head. The alleged victim told the FBI she was under constant pressure from him to recruit more girls there to “come party” with him and his “disgusting” older friends. The incidents almost always involved drugs and alcohol and turned violent with hair-pulling and beatings, according to the woman.
