Lawmakers in the US say that documentation about a convicted sex offender, the Department of Justice (DOJ), inappropriately censored Jeffrey Epstein’s files before they were made public.
On Monday, members of Congress were able to start looking at the unredacted copies of the roughly three million pages of data that have been made public since December under the Epstein data Transparency Act (EFTA). Democratic Representative Ro Khanna told MS NOW that the main problem is that they are not complying with my law, which the FBI under Donald Trump cleaned up in March.
Since the lawmakers filed their complaint, at least one document has been unredacted. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said on X, “The DOJ is committed to transparency. Last week, lawyers for Epstein’s victims questioned the redactions of the papers. They stated that the new batch of files included email addresses and nude images that made it easy to identify potential victims.
Survivors stated in a statement that the disclosure was “outrageous” and that they should not be “named, scrutinised, and retraumatized. The DOJ stated it had removed all the flagged files and that the errors were caused by “technical or human error.
