House Oversight Committee Probes Epstein Files, Subpoenas Clinton, Comey, Barr

Congress has resumed work on the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, focusing on releasing extensive files related to the scandal, including 33,000 pages of documents published by the House Oversight Committee. These files, obtained from the Justice Department, detail investigations into Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, revealing allegations of sex trafficking and abuse of underage girls. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has requested that the Treasury Department provide Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) tied to Epstein to assist in oversight and legislative efforts aimed at combating sex trafficking and addressing potential government mismanagement. Comer’s inquiry also seeks to improve federal handling of sex crime investigations and the use of non-prosecution or plea agreements. The release and examination of these documents come amid public and political pressure for greater transparency in the case. The Treasury Department has yet to respond to the request for these financial records, which are crucial for understanding potential criminal activities linked to Epstein’s finances.
