Epstein Survivors, Congress Push DOJ for Full File Release

Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse, joined by bipartisan lawmakers, are intensifying their demands for the full release of all investigation files related to Epstein's sex trafficking crimes, challenging President Trump's dismissal of the issue as a "hoax." Despite claims by the Department of Justice that many documents have been shared, survivors argue that the records remain heavily redacted and insufficiently transparent. Victims are also calling for the identification of all individuals who received sexual favors from Epstein and insist that Ghislaine Maxwell serve her full sentence without leniency, amid reports of her seeking a presidential pardon following interviews with Trump's lawyers and Justice Department officials. Some survivors have begun confidentially compiling their own lists of Epstein’s alleged clients to ensure accountability, reflecting deep public skepticism toward official investigations. Lawmakers across party lines, including Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, support efforts to push through legislation demanding a thorough public review of all related files to restore trust in institutions and deliver justice. The movement underscores a growing national call for transparency, accountability, and support for survivors in the face of perceived institutional failures.
